Wheel wells fleetside

Hi,
Any one that have replaced wheel wells on a fleet side?
The patch panels available does not go all the way down, resulting
in need to also purchase quater panels infront of and behind center patch panel.

See the pic on my truck, why I need to do this...

Any one know if this is the case? Or are the pictures on LMC and brothers not right.

Re: Wheel wells fleetside

I believe you are correct. I have not seen a patch panel that goes along the full wheel well. It looks like your truck bed had the edge of the wheel well cut out. Otherwise, the bed looks like it's in great condition. That will be a difficult piece to fabricate. Perhaps a few pieces could be salvaged from a damaged bed as donors. I am very curious if maybe, just maybe the stepside rear fender has the same shape wheel well lip? In other words, could the stepside rear fender supply the patch pieces you need?
