Inner fender wells

Are all front inner fender wells the same for 79? I found one on a 1 ton camper special and it looked wider to me. Also are the bench seats the same mounting wise. The camper special has a seat where you can fold down the center and it has cup holders as well as it being a arm rest. The biggest problem is the seats had a lot of mouse crap on it. Does anyone make seat covers for this type of seat?

Re: Inner fender wells

All wheel wells are the same width.

I don't remember a seat with a fold down arm rest or cup holders in 1979. I think you may have a later seat.

agreed. I too don't remember them as a factory option. But they were a very popular aftermarket add-on.

Re: Inner fender wells

Left and right inner fenders are different though. One is a little wider and a different configuration, as I recall.

This is true the left one is a bit narrower due to the steering gear and shaft. But I believe they are the same as the earlier years.
