Rolling fenders: FAILED. Grinding the lips?

[Jrgunn5150]

I've used snips or a cutoff wheel on a 4" grinder

If that roller wouldn't do it then you almost surely have OEM fenders, instead of cheesy thin aftermarket.

I use a medium ball peen hammer on them, no ****. Works like a champ and have done it many, many times.

However, if you do that on aftermarket fenders you'll destroy them...

years ago I had some heels put on a small car - they rubbed so the tire shop pulled out a baseball bat stuck between the tire and fender, had a few people sit in the trunk and drove a few inches back and forth.

Not sure if that would work with our trucks, that was a small car

I have seen this trick used before and it looked really good. I guess it's an old school trick they would do on old hot rods when they used real wide wheels and tires in the rear if they didn't shackle flip. Also in the front to buy enough room for vertical travel and turning room

This is how I did mine for the most part. Little hammer persuasion to start. Make sure you back up the other side your hitting with your hand.

This is the type of hammer I use as well.

I've always used a baseball bat and a couple buddies to push back and forth. Don't try and drive it, that's how funny YouTube video's are born
