Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone out there makes wider front fenders for our trucks?

 

I think only Ford did for the F-600-900........And I Think the F-600 only has a larger cut-out for the tire. The 700-900 are the wide ones.

Jesus man i can't believe you what them wider. We have the widest fenders on the planet. FAT FENDER FORDS !!!! You can't check the oil as it is.

 

OK I see you got a 55. GET A 51 MUCH WIDER.

 

LMAO... I need'em just a fuzz bit wider for my next project...

 

SO what would it take to get you to measure how wide your front fenders are?

 

Yeah, but your fenders are only wider because your hood is narrower!!

 

Sorry, couldn't resist.

If you were planing on using the 2 inch wider rear fenders, it would look awesome to widen the fronts the same amount, fill up the wheel wells with wheel and tire then hunker everything down over a fully independent suspension.

 

Let me tell you a story, a true story, about a "project" gone awry. From 1970 till 1985 the Army had a "project" called the M247 "Sargeant York Gun"...this gun was an abyssmal failure but the Army would not give up on it. 14 years after the design had begun (and after years of revisons, redesigns, and failures) the gun went into final test. The gun was designed to shoot down Soviet helicopters but the system was so flawed that the Army had to resort to covering the target helicopters with aluminum foil so that the M247 radar could "see" them. The Army brass were so sold on this weapon system that they could not see the inherent shortcomings of the design and so for 15 years they kept pouring money into it until it was finally killed by the Sec Def in 1985.
I will leave it to the reader to draw any conclusions they feel relevant...

 

Hey thats my idea! Although I'm stuffing 4 tires in the rear with a triangulated 4 link and twin I beam in the front.

My front fenders are off a 51 M-6 dump truck.

 

ed what the hades do ya want wider front fenders for ???? i thought i seen 'em in someones catalog in fiberglass but i'll be dained if i can 'member . i had an f600 of 56 vintage and outside of much larger wheel openings they were the same width , so you are in trouble trying too find f700-900 big boys as there just isn't a whole lot of 'em floating around !!!!! need room for fat meats up front and can't do it with offset wheels ??? try this and i know someone is gonna throw rocks at me .... i had a 55 frame with a 79 monte carlo front clip on it , and it's here still in springfield , a freind of tim / twise's has it , and the tires sat a good three or more inches inboard and i could get some 60's under it easily without rubbing the fenders . at least i think thats what car donated the front clip .... been awhile ........ man you got them big bling bling wheels now your gonna drop and tuck , and next is what ??????????????
