Learn how to remove and replace your Silverado fender.
Where To Buy: http://bit.ly/1500fender
If you have a GMC or Chevy made truck, you know changing the fender can be a daunting task. This fender is very similar to Tahoe, Sierra, Escalade and Yukon trucks and SUV’s.
These are not your typical fenders, they have an inner fender. Whats that?! The fender is not just a panel like most vehicles, but rather has a long inner shelf that extends into the engine bay where other components are bolted to the fender. Yes, It can be a pain but we’re here to help.

You’re only dealing with bolts, so knowing what to take off is key. This video is rather long but we shortened it as much as we could. For the right-passenger side fender, the battery, coolant reservoir and air intake sit on top of the inner fender or fender shelf. Once these items are removed, you can take off the steel plates they sit on off.
After this step, the only thing attached to the fender should be the hood hinge, fender liner and headlight. The headlight and fender liner are pretty standard when changing a fender. GMC-Chevy decided to create the fender so large that the hood hing has to bolt on to the fender. This is not typical for most vehicles. You have tor prop the hood up to remove the hood hinge bolt.
Finally, remove all the bolts holding the fender to the frame and your just half way done. Now, you have to transfer any hardware form the old fender to the new and work your way backwards to install the new fender.

The headlights have one large plug, you don't have to remove the harness at each bulb.
Now I see that I can do it. Time. Time. All it takes is time….and wrenches, screwdrivers and a couple other simple tools. I am an impatient person so it will be a challenge for me. Just the removal of every single bolt, screw will drive me nuts. I want it done NOW, not in hours later !! Anywho, I will get er" done.A body shop OR me, it's the same process. Maybe an electric drill/ratchet will speed it up ? Good video guys, gals, to all involved !
Video way to long
Okey doke. So bondo it is!
Thank ya…f'd up my right side working. This gonna save lotsa $$!!
Damn, just gonna pay someone to do it lol. What’s the standard rate price on replacing just one front fender on a 09 silverado
Thanks for this video. I recently purchased a used 2007 Silverado and it looks like the right fender was a demonstration of 'how not to do bodywork'. Thankfully, my truck is white, so with all of the fleet/maintenance trucks on the road I hope to have an assortment of parts for a long time to come. The local u-pull-it yard has a truck on their lot with an untouched white fender for all of $40…just wanted to know what I'm getting myself into before heading out to the salvage yard.
Yooo. I love y’all’s videos. Thank you guys for this one. My 2013 has a dent on the right side and I’m planning on fixing it when My fall semester is over. Thank you guys for the video
