I am ready to start fitting the new rocker in my 70 and have a question. Being as the original was spot welded and I cant replicate this, should i just drill 5/16 dia holes every 4" or so and weld thru to the inner rocker and floorpan?
Thanks
Steve

That is how you would do it, but not every 4". More like every one and a half to two inches.
