i have replaced the left r. tower on a 88 9kt. what happens is that the body sealer-3m brushable- gets hard/cracks lets water in and it rusts from behind.all owners of these cars should inspect and stop the rust before it takes hold. i.e. navel gelly/paint/reseal w/3m.you have to weld in new metal. i cut one out of a scrap 9k to weld in the 88. you might be able to mig weld a bead along the seam if the rust is not wide. if not then bend sheet metal to form cover plates-weld these on the inside and the outside of the area.- burt.
