I bought rockers, floor pans, and cab corners from Bronco Graveyard before last winter. The patches were thicker than the existing floor. The fit on the driver's floor pan was good. Passenger was not perfect. The ribs in the floor pan didn't exactly line up with the factory floor. The passenger side rocker fit great. The driver's side rocker was bowed slightly, with a sag in the middle that required quite a bit of work to get it straight. Everything else was fine.

There are no inner cab corners available as a patch panel, as far as I could find anyway. I think what you're referring to as an inner rocker is actually the outer floor pan. The outer cab corners and outer floor pans from Bronco Graveyard fit fine.
Be aware that nobody makes a patch that also replaces the spot that the seatbelt bolts to on the outer floor pan. I'm sure this is for liability reasons. If you want to replace this area, or the inner cab corner, you're on your own. I had to replace most of the inner cab corner on my '89, and the area that the seat belt bolt to. If you replace that area, you need to reinforce it heavily.

So the floor sections are the firewall and foot well area only? You cannot get the section under the seat back to the rear of the cab? That’s what it looks like from the pictures

On your picture, the left side would be part of the actual floor pan. This would but up to the lower part of the A pillar, and extends into the foot well only a few inches. The raised part on the middle and right, on the bottom of picture goes up to the seat. You likely won't need most of that material. The top of the picture is the part that buts up to the pinch seam between the rocker and this piece. When I welded this in, I put holes in the flange for the rocker, and welded through it to the piece shown. The factory has this spot welded together. The flange all the way to the right goes up into the cab corner.
To add to the confusion, I believe the piece shown is for the driver's side, but it is upside down.
