Re: Sagging Rear Stepside Fenders

Maybe hammering it out, and then welding a metal brace or support on the inner side of the fender to hold it up? Anyone ever try this?
Stepside fenders bolt through the flange around the perimeter of the fender directly to the bedside with 12 bolts spaced roughly 6 inches apart around the mounting flange. They can't sag unless the bedside is bent and it has stiffeners rolled into the flat side to prevent 'oilcanning'.
