The preheater hose is a good idea.

Is there any seals that hang down off the inner fender next to the frame rail? I didn't take good pics during teardown. Thanks

Decided to start welding on the fenders. They are a lot easier than the bedsides.



I used a Lincoln 135 gas welder that Shannon brought over. It welded really nice.



After welding



Grinding the bulk of the weld with a 3M 1991 stone.



After final grind with a 3" roloc
