December 3, 200916 yr I posted this question earlier, but I noticed a discrepancy in the years the panels fit. Rustrepair.com offers rockers to fit 80-94 wagon/sedan. However, when I go to that specific page, the chart only indicates 85-94. I noticed from this thread that other body panels will work with the Brat, but only from 80-84 models. This suggests to me that in 85 Other Subaru models received significant changes, while the the Brat remained on the older platform . So my question is this; will the shape (not length, I can trim and weld that) from 85-94 rockers fit the Brat or am I S.O.L. in terms of finding brand new rockers to fit without custom fabbing them? A salvage yard is still an option, but I don't think they'd be any less expensive than $41 per panel. Again, thanks for your knowledge.
December 3, 200916 yr I considered the purchase of those very same panels. After carefully looking over the year-range though, I reached the unfortunate conclusion that the panels are for the EA82 "loyale" body style. :-\ Great for those with rusty loyales.... for us brat owners, not so much.
December 3, 200916 yr until some company reproduces some quality repair panels just for the BRAT, consider the BRAT a dying breed....
