Good luck with the captive nuts.  | | | | | Joined: Nov 2000 Posts: 427 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2000 Posts: 427 | Yes - Panel/Suburban fenders were the same through the whole run as far as I know. Better get MT to verify this though cause he's the panel fenderman - the walrus - koo koo kaachoo. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 1 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 1 | Is far as I know all panel/ suburbans had the same "corners" Which are you looking for? I need the driver side.

Splashoil, what did you say about captive nuts? There is so much crud on the underside of my fenders that I haven't had a chance to study how they connect to the rest of the body. | | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | I am still around. New email address [email protected] | | | | | Joined: Jun 2001 Posts: 379 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2001 Posts: 379 | Those captive nuts are for the bolts attaching the fenders. Be patient, slosh 'em a few times with some type of oil. I had a hell of a time with mine, some came off with the sheet metal from the body--more patch/repair. You might try some carefully applied heat, then slosh 'em while they are warm. You don't need exotic spray penetrants for this, heavier oil is probably better, higher flash to fire point and all.... :p | | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | OldkarKook !! See how they fly like lucy in the sky............ Those panel fenders were all the same from '47- 55 1st series 1/2 ton to 1 ton GMC & Chev.
Suprisingly enough the stainless trim on these fenders was only avaliable in the panel van & not in the suburban models. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2001 Posts: 1,519 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2001 Posts: 1,519 | all panel truck rear fenders are the same. and.....speaking of deluxe trim strips,i have a complete set (all 14 pcs.) for sale. | | |
