Re: inner fenders

No one makes a replacement liner that will help. The problem is the inner fender won't allow you to raise it any higher.

I had an 82 Blazer that we cut the inner fender, sectioned and raised everything up. It was a costly venture, but looked great.

The common replacement these days is buy a set of trailer fenders and adapt them.

Re: inner fenders

That's a lot cleaner than the ones I made. I would like to redo mine before I paint the truck, but here they are anyway.

Re: inner fenders

Trailer fenders are very resonable priced. Do a Google search for a supplier in your area.

Chuck- It looks like you just modded your fender liners. That might work just fine, but we want as much cleareance as possible.

We actually sectioned the inner fender and raised everything up. Lots of work to keep a stock liner....
