Changing rear fenders
Need to replace both rear fenders on 67 stepside truck. Is it as simple as unbolting a few screws? thanks

Re: Changing rear fenders
I could get the bolts loose by hand so I used a cutting torch.

Re: Changing rear fenders
I drilled the center of the phillips screw head out with a twist drill a little smaller than 5/16" diameter.
Mine where very badly rusted. I think I used 9/32 (but 1/4) would have probably worked also. I drilled just deep enough to get too the back of the nut. Then when I turned the nut with a wrench it broke off clean and no damage to the fender.

Re: Changing rear fenders
Good exploded diagrams on LMC truck catalog.
Not the best pics, but: 1. Bolts connecting step to fender; 2. Bolts connecting stiffening rods to bedside; 3. Bolts connecting fender to bed.
