fender teardown/swap, any advice?
tomorrow a buddy of mine are going to tear down the driver side and remove the fender (i bought a better condition one today). ive never taken off any of the body before, so i was wondering if anyone has any advice or past experiences to share, to help me avoid any obstacles.

Re: fender teardown/swap, any advice?
I spent a night or 2 just trying to get all the bolts off holding it to the inner fender! Those are the worst to remove,IMO.The rest aren't that bad.

Had no problem with and of the bolts. just keep track of any shims and their placement when removing them.

When you put your new fender on, don't tighten any of the bolts until it is perfectly positioned.

keep up with your shims, or your body lines will be off
