Tips for adding dually fenders to non dually bed?
Has anyone added dually fenders to a bed before?

Re: Tips for adding dually fenders to non dually bed?
I'm about to be doing this, what are you having problems with? I have all the parts here, including three dually beds for parts and looking at as I go.
My plan is to convert my existing long wide bed to long dually. The wheel well openings will need to be enlarged before the dually fenders are bolted on. I will be using the worst dually bed I have and cutting its enlarged-wheel well bedsides off to use as a template on the bed I am converting. That way I have the mounting holes located correctly and open up the wheel wells to the same size as factory.

you could make heavy paper templates of the dually bedside...be way cheaper to ship and you wouldn't have to worry bout getting em back

Maybe poster board templates?
I'll be doing this in the next year or so as well. Fortunately I have a dually here to copy from.

Got my templates cut out. Junk fenders mocked up.
