Removing Dually Fenders for re-paint

Just picked up an 03 Dually. Paint is in great shape except the Dually fenders have your basic sandblast appearance and some weird blemishes in the paint. I want to take them off and have them re-painted and im wondering how easy it is to take the fenders off.......anyone have any experience with this? Thanks in advance.....

I dont, but if you remove the inner wheel well you ought to be able to see how theyre held on and how difficult it would be to remove them.

I *believe* they are bolted on with a "gasket" of sorts and should be pretty easy to remove.

I have no experience doing this.

But I do have a great memory and recalled a thread over on TDR that had some pics of a dually bed sans DRW fenders that may help ya some.....

The hardest part of the fender to take off is the rear bolts. You have to pull the tail light lenses out and have a skinny hand, or you can reach it from the bottom if you have long arms...........

I'm not fussing, I wanted to see it as well. I busted the LR fender on mine and have to change it as soon as I can get the new fender sprayed.
