I think that's going to as hard as finding a dash!!! When I had mine relpaced 14 years ago, we had to order them from Isuzu in Japan!! Took about 2 weeks to get them. Don't want to bum you out but I had a hard time find them back in 88. Try an Isuzu dealer, I think that would be the best place to start.

I bought both sides about four years ago from a body and fender place in Hagerstown- he had them on the shelf. I think they were around $20. each. They are kinda cheesy- more like the "screw over top of the old ones to get thru inspection " variety, but they are roughly the right shape, and with a little work, fit pretty good. I just got around to doing the passenger side last week- I'll soon have some photos posted. The inner sill panels you're going to have to make, but they're pretty flat, and easy to peice together if you don't have a brake- the hardest part of the whole project is that if the outer rocker is gone, all the stuff inside that ties the door sill together with the cab mounts (the flat part of the door sill runs all the way from the front of the cab to the back) is probably gone, too. I had to make all that, as well- fabbing the peices isn't bad, but the cleanup work is a real bear. The name of the body and fender place is Christy Enterprises-301.791.2522 I've got a call in now, and the guy is looking into seeing if he can still get them...

I just got a call back from Russ at Christy Enterprises (301.791.2522)- he said they can still get LUV rocker panels for both sides- they're $26.60 each.

I did a search and found a place called Smeals Enterprises. They list them on their web page for $20. Also try Pacific Automotive Warehouse web site.
