Dropping Inner Fender
Is it possible to drop the inner fender without removing the fender?
Gonna be removing the stock AC stuff to shave my firewall.

Re: Dropping Inner Fender
Be aware that you may have a little bit of trouble reinstalling it. Bolt holes may be slighly off. I used a phillips screwdriver on the adjacent hole to align mine.
Another thing you may want to do is to get some extra speed nuts and bolts from Napa or other auto parts store to have with you in case they break off or strip out... |

Once you get a couple of bolts started, the rest seems fairly easy. How do I know this???????? Yeah, I know those are the outer fenders, but I had to replace the inners and the core support too. Never, ever, get your truck sidewise on the freeway!
