Ease of a fender swap?

How long and complicated is it to swap a driver's side fender on a '90 square body burb? Any difficulties I should know of?

Re: Ease of a fender swap?

i swapped the fender on my blazer, i dont know what kind of things they bolted on to them in 90 but there wasnt anything besides the battery on mine, the only problem i had was the radiator suport front end part wanted to bend back, so to get teh fender in place i really had to pull out on it to get the bolts to line up so maybe if you stick a 2x4 in there to keep its place or something, oh also, keep all the spacers they had in their

It takes about an hour. Make things easy by loosening radiator support bolts on opposite fender. It will give you some room. Good luck.
