70 c-10 core suport replacement

[sasquatch58]

hi members,i need to replace my core support {rusted out on rt lower side}my question is,..can i replace it without removing the fenders.Any info would be greatly appreciated...Thanks in advance....sasquatch58

[WIDESIDE72]

yes but it it helps to have some help if you dont pull the fenders

[sasquatch58]

thank you wideside72.. I thought so by looking at the core support.I have removed the inner fenders ,so I figured if I put a porta power on the top edge of both fenders to hold them in place, my buddy and I could wiggle it out after first removing the side fender to core support braces.does this sound like a good plan..let me know either way, if it is convienent to do so .if not thank you for the reply......sincerely, sasquatch 58.

THat sounds like it would work. I have pulled them with nothing but an extra set of hands helping me.

very cool!!! thanks for all your help..I love car & truck forums.How cool is it,People sharing the same interest's helping each other out when needed

at that point there are 3 bolts on the cab side each and the fenders come off making life a whole lot easier, though i can understand if its shimmed and a pain to get lined back up again.

thank you blackdawn for your reply..but I wanted to avoid removeing the hood also.have a great day and thanks again.
