How difficult was it to pull the fenders?
Sorry i couldnt answer any question. Im in the same boat as u, just starting this process
Hey, the fenders werent the hard part. It was the fender wells that were a huge PITA. The driver side fender well seemed alot easier than the passenger for some reason. Just start pulling all the trees and unscrewing all the screws from the fender and fender well. Than there will be about 8-10 (11mm I think) bolts connecting the fneder to the front bumper. You will need to take off the two brackets that hold the front bumper to the radiator support right on top. You can see the brackets sitting on top of my raditor in the picture. Pull the front bumper foward and it should come off pretty easy. Before you start pulling though there is trim that is holding on the side skirts. Pull the side skirts up to pull the trim over the metal bracket on the fenders. Than thats really it. And just be careful not to scratch the paint when taking the fender off, its pretty simple.

yea i thought u were installing that a while back? have u not had the time? also when u do ur going to need c/c plates to help get the alignment. well i had to anyways cause my car was low as hell. what spring rate did u go with with ur coilover springs?
Hey, I was supposed to order my a arms today but instead Im getting a new coil and a battery relocator kit lol I have had the k member for a LONG time now. I have the money but than I always spend it on something else. Girdle covers, manifold, gears, install kit, battery relocator kits, coil, subframes, panhard bar, billet interior sh*t, ignition wires, etc lol Im going to do the front suspension all at once and the rear all at once too.

Im going to do the front at one time (k member, a arms, coil over, struts, cc plates, etc.) and the rear at the same time (not sure with rear setup but Im already running strange 10 ways and have a mm panhard bar). Im doing all my work in batches lol After this than comes tf street manifold (have it), accufab 70mm tb (and egr), cai, valve covers and 2 1/2 cowl (or cobra). I like doing it in batches instead of one at a time, makes life alot easier lol
