Default How to remove fender

Hey all, doing some work to my friends 2nd gen 1998 ram tomorrow, need to put a new fender on it. Is there a diagram of where all the bolts are that I need to remove? Or is it similar to Dakota's? Thanks

I myself need to replace both of my fenders....from what i hear its kind of a big job, theres an inner and an outer , and they are welded together, when you get to that part you need to drill out the welds , i would just find some non rusted ones complete (inner/outer) and do it that way

You can remove them all as one big piece. There are a good amount of bolts though. Just keep unbolting

There are inner and outer fenders , experience says to remove them both as one piece and then you have to drill the spot welds that hold the two together . Near the end of this video is where i had mine off . The outer fenders were rusted out but the inner fenders were fine .

It can be done with them on the truck but it is about twice the work !
