Has anyone noticed or is it just me that noticed in the pick n pulls, that the 87-91 trucks hardly ever had fender rust and the 92-96 trucks always did? Maybe just that way in NE, cause that's where I seem em all when I lived there.

I did a motor swap on my Bronco, and a core support, fenders, doors and etc swap on it. Not that big a deal. Just set aside a day and get to it.

I get my fenders thru certifit and they have high quality parts. Ive been using them for 18 yrs. I think front fenders for our trucks are around $70 a piece shipped. And before i put them on i spray the inside and inside all the holes full of truck bed coating to protect the inside. Takes me about an hour and a half to put a fender on

Your not the only one, I've noticed that to. My 94 F150 I got, the front fenders were horrible looking with only 91k miles on the truck. Rust of the truck is actually really nice and solid, especially the cab!


My 1990 F250, front fenders only had abit of rust on them, and cab was gone, with 377k miles!
