Fender removal?

[NateCharger]

Do you need to remove the bumper, headlights, grilles, etc. to remove the fenders on a 1971 Charger R/T? Thanks!

Yup

Sigh.... Anybody have a write up by chance?

Not sure of any write ups just start at the front and work your way back. Taking them off is not that bad just make sure to take a lot of pics and keep up of with the number and placement of any shims

I got it handled. Fenders had never been off before, so it took a little bit to break them loose.

Major steips
1. Remove lower valance. Hardware is 7/16" Best to use a speed box end wrench.
2. Disconnect wiring to running lights and head lights.
3. Remove bumper complete with grill.
4. Remover two blots lower quarter.
5. Remove mounting hardware around head lights.
6. Remover inner plastic panel.
7. Remove fender mounting bracket near upper rear of fender.
8. Remover upper hardware along the top of fender.
9. Fender has factory sealer between fender and inner panel. You need to lift the fender to break the seal.
10 Good luck
