nope no welder needed to replace the fenders and fender wells, they are bolted on.

Re: Welder required??

good to know, and thank you.

When removing is it easier to just tighten the old bolts till they break off instead of baking them of? i heard that somewhere.

Why not try to take them off first, I Have taken several of these trucks apart and never had one bolt rusted so tight I couldnt get it to come off. there isnt that many bolts to have to be taken off in order to get these parts off your truck.
