Unfortunately they are different. The one ton (122' wb) and the 1 1/2 tons have a considerably larger wheel opening. I have some good extras, but wouldn't want to crate them up. They shouldn't be too hard to find in many parts of the country...

Really? Someone makes 42-47 pickup fenders? Who?

Whoever ended up with the Fairlane molds would have the fronts. We (Wescott) make the rears. Northern Classic Trucks is making the running boards in steel.
