3gen fenders????

[noff57]

Hey guys,

Ultimate Products show that the fiberglass fenders is for a 71-74. But if i am correct isnt the 71-72 fenders different than the 73-74???

And the same with the paddock parts with 71-74 CHARGER REAR LOWER FRONT FENDER-RH patch panels?

also does anybody know if the patch panels have the back brace?

Thanks,

Tj

I do not think the patch panels have the back brace (that seems to be a trouble area on my 71) Depending on the size of the patch needed it may be easier to have a patch made and welded in. I too have found it hard to locate and get shipped fenders.

what patch panels ? if you mean the "dog leg" patch panel, they work the same to any 3rd gen. patch panles doesn have any brace or reinforcement, is just a skin

fiberglass fenders... dunno which year are based those. Nobody reported got those to give a feedback about.

I tried looking at the patch panels on paddocks site and they have no pictures of them. I even called them and the lady I talked to had no idea what I was talking about. The only thing she could tell me was it was 19" tall, which is what was on the web site. 

There are a couple places on ebay that have them for sale but from the looks of the pics, they just don't look right to me. I may have to get some metal and fabricate my own.

Thanks Nacho, They have the rear quarter patch panels too. I also think that the left rear spring shackle mount needs replaced and I see they have that too.

Thanks,

It still looks like I need to fab make own bracket for the backside of the fender towards the door.

[Nacho-RT74]

yes definitelly... I had to too

[noff57]

Nacho, did order and use patch panels or did fab yourself?


Thanks,

fab myself the patch panel AND the reinforcement patching... living outside USA sometimes is easier and cheap fab myself whatever is easy to make.
