I used a hammer and dolly a little at a time.I'm not sure what I am seeing in the photo. How was that skin hemmed?
If I add shims at the top or bottom won't the body creases move out of alignment?Yeah a slide hammer with a thin hook attachment is what should be used. But if the fender has been off, it is likely not in the same shape it was from the factory. It's hard to explain, but the contour of the fender is easily changed by simply unbolting the bottom and adding or subtracting a bit of shim. In your case it would be adding.
Yes and no. Contour and alignment are controllable by shimming, but I think it might be something that has to be taught. I don't know how to explain it. Has the fender been off, or is it in its original position?If I add shims at the top or bottom won't the body creases move out of alignment?
Its actually the first time the fender has been on since a bought this project. The fender came with the cat but not on it.Yes and no.
