Default 29 front fenders next step.

Well I got the passenger side front fender bolted up today - with the nuts facing in (or up in the case of the fender attachment that faces up - up). [Picture 1]

I also got the fenders drilled and bolted up with the carriage bolts at the end of the fender braces along with the special reinforcements. The originals were spot welded in place. Since I have no spot welder, a little JB weld should hold it in place. [picture 2]

The next step is to loosen the rear fenders and fit the running boards. I am hoping they will fit without modification!

The reinforcement will fit in the fender groove and be fine.... I didn't glue or tack mine...
I think they were originally tacked in so they didn't get lost
