Re: 1941 project fenix

running boards mounted, super easy, gets easier every time. I used some extra AD running board mounts I had laying around and trimmed them to about 11 1/2 inches in front and 13 1/2 inches in the back.

the front fenders had a little wiggle until we cinched the running boards down, this should be one quiet truck on the road because everything is very taut

the rear fenders were super wiggly, needed a brace I did not have. so I made one. I wanted the outside to be clean so I used some carriage bolts. I planned to bolt them to the bed too, but the drill didnt fit up where the brace went, so I just welded that side to the bed. you can still pull the fender by unbolting the carriage bolt so no foul

I even used a wing nut on the back side so it would be easy to pull off.
