Inner Fender Braces
Does anyone know where you can get the inner finder bracing for the front inners. Its kind of a trapezoid shape that is spot welded to the inner fender. Searching everywhere I could think of, I can not find anyone that sells just those.

Re: Inner Fender Braces
They come on new wheelhouses. Most just fab their own piece to replace the rotted out section, very common on these trucks.

Re: Inner Fender Braces
I just made my own, bending into the correct shape over the existing wheelhouse.

Re: Inner Fender Braces
That looks pretty good. I attempted to repair my originals. I cut out the raised fingers, then welded in 16ga. Also of course had to patch the holes from drilling out the spot welds. Need to clean the welds a little more. My welds are not pretty enough to leave as is.
