Re-engineering Wheel Wells
I was wondering if anyone has ever just cut out that part of the inner wheel well that causes so many trucks to rust?
If It is there for a support brace, couldn't a different brace be formed and Bonded (Fusor) and or welded to the inside of the wheel well, then a plastic peice from something like a front inner fender be attached to the brace?
That way the inner fender could be washed at a carwash.
Ideas? anyone. Pro's Con's..
I'm just needing help brainstorming for this project in the Springtime.

I left a 1" x 8" or so opening on the inside on the lip as an experiment. Pic is before spraying with ospho then saturating with spray on bed liner.
Time will tell.
