Hey all - well, I am probably showing my ignorance once again, but metal guy sent me these photos looking for the triangular pieces of sheet metal that go between the cross sill and the trunk extensions - of course I am unable to find anything on Google...

As usual - thanks for the support!

I stand to be corrected, but to my observation- they're on it already. It's not exactly a triangle but has a slanted end and is about 5" long. Your one photo seems to show the inner flange of it that's welded to the trunk extension. Just my  :alan2cents:

J @jimynick you are correct- 1 side is still on the car, the other side has been removed.

Just wondering it those pieces have to be fabricated.  I know pics aren't great but I haven't seen it in person yet

They were available just a few years ago. I don't see them now though. Probably faster for him to bend them up rather than chase a pair down by the look of it.
Oh never mind...

OK, seriously what is my problem?  I went to the AMD website, searched by my vehicle and looked through what I thought was EVERY part.....idiot! :))

Thank you avatar_RUNCHARGER @RUNCHARGER - I swear if it weren't for this site I would get ZERO accomplished and my car would be all goofed up worse than it already is...

Don't beat yourself up. I mean what nomenclature would a normal person use for that part? I haven't built a car for 3 or 4 years, I can't believe how hard it is to find parts now. Sites that I used to go to and immediately find whatever my heart wanted have changed drastically in ease of use, availabilty and price.

Just kind of funny that no matter what I try I always end up here asking questions that are seemingly obvious - but honestly I love the I teraction so maybe I am purposely failing in my searches!

Ha, ha. I'm like a bloodhound when searching for a part or a solution. It's part of the fun. I also hate seeing people new to Mopars getting taken advantage of. Too many bad experiences and a person could turn their back on Mopars and I don't like seeing that.
