I have a '45 1 1/2 ton, left fender is hopelessly bashed in and right is about 90% good.. my question is, can I put 1/2 ton fiberglass fenders on it( I will have 16" tires on it)or is the hood longer than the 1/2 tons?...just in the research mode now, what info I can get will help me determine what I want to do with her! Rod or resto? Thanks, Bruce | | | | | Joined: Nov 2001 Posts: 481 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2001 Posts: 481 | Welcome aboard Bruce
The hood on a 41-46 1 1/2 ton is the same length as the 1/2 ton. The fenders will interchange and the 1/2 ton fender on the 1 1/2 ton should not be a problem with 16 inch wheels, although I've never done such a thing. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 49 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 49 | Hi , You can change to the 1/2 fenders ,you will have to use both left and right you will also have to use 1/2 ton running boards as they are shorter from the rockers to the step. Hope this helps . Send me an email i might be able to help you with parts. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 8 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 8 | Hey Guys,
Thanks for the quick replies to my post!!! This is WHY the Stovebolt Page is the best source of information on these fantastic old trucks!....My wife and I bought a '52 3/4 ton while on our honeymoon in 1988...sadly we had to sell it because of my career in the U.S.Navy had us moving all over the place. I retired on 31 Dec '03 soooooo THIS ONE STAYS!!!
Thanks Guys!!
