I am in the process of replacing my bed pockets on my 39 pickup , have removed bed sides and 3 ( so far) pockets . I am curious about panel adhesive vs spot welding.
To be clear , I have done a lot of tig and mig welding over the years but have never done spot welding . I recently bought a Harbor Freight cheapo spot welder and done a few spot welds on some scrap pieces and most did end up sticking together fairly well .
As far as Panel adhesive , not really crazy about using it but am curious if anyone here ever tried it . Thanks
