Shortening long box bed sides

I’m looking to shorten my bedsides. Has anyone patched in the front piece of the wheel arch. It has a curve to it on a lwb and is straight on a swb. Are wheel openings on a blazer or suburban the same as a short wheel base truck?

Re: Shortening long box bed sides

67 long and short boxes have the same wheel openings, the style you are looking for. Changed after that, short and long are different like you pointed out in your pics.

I don't know about blazer wheel openings.
