How to remove Fender on a Chevy Silverado

A quick run through on what it takes to remove a driver side fender of a Chevy pickup truck. The process is similar with all Chevy model trucks they all come out as a while unit.

[@edkennard72]

Thank you very much. You just saved me a boatload of money. I can't thank you enough. I had the city back into my fender to destroy it and my headlight assembly and watching your video. Now I have the confidence to know that I can do it myself. Thank you. Thank you so much

[@aarontull1907]

Thanks man, we body techs greatly appreciate short, and to the point videos like these.

[@AutoWizard94]

No problem!

[@SkyRCFanatic]

Just replaced my fender using this video. Thanks for the video. It took me about 6 hours to replace the fender. Due to the fact you need to remove the grill and light. I also had to transfer all the hardware from one fender to the other. Patience is all you need.

[@AutoWizard94]

Awesome , I’m glad to hear that ! Yeah these box fenders can be a pain because it’s an actual structural piece once you remove the fender all the engine bay is exposed and you have to remove everything that’s holding the fender so it can release it

[@danik8045]

Did you have to remove the bumper too?

[@wyattcrystalcooley9996]

I loved this video. It was a very clear picture and explained very well. A HUGE help. Thank you.

[@1JamesHamilton1]

Best video on this topic yet. I'm glad that I searched one last time. This guy is a very effective speaker. The other videos were okay but they didn't appear to be enjoying what they were doing. In most of the other videos that I have watched the mechanics were fighting the bolts, and complaining about how difficult it is to do this on the driver's side of a Silverado.This guy obviously enjoys what he does. I would just say that if you don't enjoy this kind of work then you should consider taking your vehicle to someone who does, or you could end up causing more damage, and costing yourself more money. This kind of work is what some of us live for. We crave it, feed off it, and we almost never give up. Almost because sometimes we pick each other's brain for the experience, and wisdom there in. Sometimes a different set of eyes and ears can make for a more efficient way. Anyway we know who we are so I'll stop now🤪 Thanks for the video

[@AutoWizard94]

Thank you for your kind words! 🤙 these fenders here can be a pain in the butt, all you need is a little patience and sometimes guidance. It’ll take you a long way…. Thanks for watching

[@erikskaug8603]

Damn that's alot of step to do to remove the side fender

[@AutoWizard94]

Hell yeah bro when I'm slammed for work I think about that too 😭😩 just a little patience is all

[@DentRepairNow]

Thanks so much for putting this out there. I’m replacing the fender on my Silverado tomorrow. I was a little worried about it but you’ve put my mind at ease.

[@AutoWizard94]

Thanks for watching I hope you find this useful ! 👌 it’s not that difficult just the will to do it and the patience ...

[@roberthite966]

You made it look easy but not easy enough for this old man to tackle.

[@AutoWizard94]

You can do it too , it's just a little patience!

[@oOBCKushOo]

You make it look easy my dood.

[@AutoWizard94]

Lol it's just a little bit of practice!

[@oOBCKushOo]

@@AutoWizard94 I was being sarcastic. U actually make it look waaay more complicated than it is. But good video! Subscribed brother!

[@andrewybarra2304]

I miss the old Chevy fenders so much easier to take on and off and to line up

[@wingding6758]

wow! I was looking for guidance on whether to buy a 2018 Chevy silverado that got hit front side... The driver fender was taken off and the headlight and front grille assembly. But the fender was scaring me till I seen you take it off. Has 35,000 miles and there asking $6600 But Im gonna have to come up with some parts... i think it's worth it.

[@AutoWizard94]

Awesome I’m glad the video could help you out! 👏

[@wingding6758]

@@AutoWizard94 Yes! Very helpful... I bought the Silverado and Glad I did. Now i got the confidance to put it back together. One saving grace was they had the bumper/fender removed and I thought all the nuts and bolts were missing ..Till I looked in the glove box!! Was that EVER a treat! That plate you removed with the 7 bolts was a mystery but not anymore. It was sitting in the bed but now I know where it belongs. Thank You!

[@santanamargiela]

Silverado are so worth it.

[@serge3463]

That was the easiest removal I ever thought thank you!!!!

lol thank you I’ve done my fair share of them, good luck, they’re not difficult just a whole lot of unbolting

[@nuclearknight8543]

I have a 2016 GMC Canyon and I hope the fender removal is about the same my wife backing out destroyed the passenger front fender

[@AutoWizard94]

Those are a lot easier , it doesn’t come with the inner structure like these here. It’s just the outer panel

[@YellaThunderTDC]

Is the process the same for passenger side? Tired to follow step by step but no tray just my air intake and battery. Is the bolts I need to get to under all that?

[@AutoWizard94]

It is , the air intake has to come out and the battery

[@petesciarabba4367]

Thanks for the video. Question: Are the pre-painted fenders you can buy matched pretty good color-wise?

[@AutoWizard94]

I believe so I’m not too sure though

[@timmorris245]

Thanks for sharing, hope you and wife had a great New Year.

[@AutoWizard94]

Thank you, I hope you did as well . Thanks for keeping up

[@Incrediblebowlesmodels]

Is the passenger side the same in terms of mounting

[@AutoWizard94]

Yeah it's pretty much the same it just has other stuff in the way that the other doesn't vice versa!

Very helpful thank you 👍

Very helpful thank you!!

[@AutoWizard94]

Thanks 🙏 glad you found it useful

[@wesman2086]

Once you remove fender and are replacing it with an after market fender what will you have to take off original fender and put on new fender. The liner has to come off and there is a bracket with two bolts. I have the bracket but do not remember how it bolts on the fender

[@AutoWizard94]

Everything , brackets, retainers etc… they always come bare when new

[@jesusrobles3220]

Do you have to remove bumper in order to do this?

[@AutoWizard94]

Yesss you do the way the fender hinges on and all the other parts in the way it's almost nearly impossible to not remove it

[@ramcholan2034]

Thanks for the great video, I need to remove my 2011 Tahoe passenger side fender to troubleshoot / fix a rain water leak. I see that the wheel well coming along with fender as one piece, that simplifies a bit. Is removing front bumper and grill required before fender removal? thanks

[@AutoWizard94]

Awesome ! I’m glad it helped. Yes it is, makes removing everything else much easier

[@Shedderdude1]

Any advice for removing/pulling the fender forward if it's pushed up into the door? I can't open the door, so no access to those bolts on the inside.

[@AutoWizard94]

Would have to see sometimes door gets damaged trying to separate them

[@MariaReyes-nz1tn]

Looks easy let’s trying

[@christenburton3199]

Can you use Silverado fenders on a gmc sierra

I think the body lines differ a bit

Thanks buddy

[@freemanlove6741]

Do you have a video for the passenger side fender?

I do not but the process is similar

[@marioeddenalvarez4771]

To install fender is it straight bolt on or is alignment needed to get straight body gaps?

[@AutoWizard94]

No it will require some alignment

[@gabestar2704]

Is it the same for. 2018 Sierra

[@AutoWizard94]

Yea similar a few things change here or there but it’s very much the same

[@dirtyhandscleanmoney805]

Not gonna lie I hate Silverado fenders 😭😭😭 if I can repair them I will definitely repair them

Yup I think we all have a love hate relationship towards them lol

Could you go into detail why you feel that way? It looks pretty easy and straight forward to replace.

Can you run no fenders on a 2014 Silverado ? Or does the headlights bolt into it?

[@AutoWizard94]

I’m sure you can, but why? Once you remove the your engine bay has no protection

Do you have to remove the bumper and grill to do this ?

Can you replace the 2015 Silverado2500hd hood and fender grille with 2020

[@user-vt2vd4ek4b]

Wow to much work for fender why they made it that hard

[@AutoWizard94]

It’s a structural piece, since the fender and wheel house all come off together

[@gerardojuarez6938]

Is it the same process for a 01 Chevy

[@AutoWizard94]

Pretty much the whole fender comes off as one unit

[@deviousdevion]

Have to take off the whole car to take a fender off no more new cars for me

[@AutoWizard94]

Lol new trucks the fender just comes off on its own now, this was the process even for 2000- 2018

[@daniel2102007]

Is it the same process for a 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 WT?

Pretty much brother, it's got a few more nuts that need removing but the overall process is the same

Dude just scrap the truck..thsts all its worth sadly

[@dustyrhoads5016]

Too fast poorly explained when you say remove this bolt,it would be nice to identify the bold as being a fender bolt or a brace bolt sorry this is just ment to help you make a more professional clip
