Good question. I have one on the passenger side of my 67 that will need swapping out as soon as I locate one that is without rust.

Inner fenders are usually pretty easy to install. I think there is about 7 bolts from what I remember, it's been awhile.

jack up the truck, pull the tire/wheel, unbolt the old inner fender and bolt in the new one...

Be safe.....use jack stands !!!

Don't even need to pull the wheel really.
The real PITA will be when 1/2 of your bolts break from the rust.

USE JACK STANDS. I think if you turn the wheel a bit off center it makes it easier to get out. Really easy. Oh by the way, use jack stands.
