What is involved in YJ fender removal
 
Need to bangout an old dent, never removed a fender from a jeep. Is it
relatively easy & how many bolts ... or is there other fasteners to
contend with?
tks

There are 5 or 6 along the joint where the fender is connected to the tub
(firewall). Then, there are 4 or 5 along the edge of the grill. It's really
pertty simple.

Thanks Jeff, still waiting on a service manual, so I'm trying to get
ahead of the game.

Well.... Depending on where you live, it can be a real simple easy job
or it can be a total nightmare where all the bolts snap off so you have
to drill and tap them or spin out the nuts and have to be cut out, then
new nuts welded in place....

On my 86, only 'one' fender bolt came out. I live in the rust belt
though....
