Re: Got a bed kit today and assembly tips would help

Well today I got the fenders square with the bed, wheel well skirts and fender braces on. For squaring the fenders I loosened the two bolts in picture one so that I could move the fenders and get them square. For the right side I had to use a spreader to get it squared up. Once it was square I tightened the bolts back up. I then had to drill out the two holes on the rear bed rail. The holes were a half hole off so I had no other option. Got the bolts in and tightened them up. For the left side I used a come-along to get it squared up.

For the wheel well skirts I installed them the same way as stated above. Used seam sealer to seal up the seams and gaps. For the fender braces I had to use my old ones and the kit did not provide new ones. Also, had to dig up some fasteners to install them
