removing front fender
 
need to replace my drivers side fender (98 xj sport) any special tools other than torx bits to remove it or any other parts have to be taken off to get it completely off.

It's a little tricky getting at the ones by the hinge, but I just used a 1/4" drive with a long extension and it worked good.

there is a brace inside the fender, center of wheel opening that you will need to break free once you get the inner fender plastic out.
the rest is simple as mentioned.

i'd spray the bottom 2 beside the rocker panel first tho.

well the donor vehicle was easy everything came out smooth even the rocker arm bolts but the brace bolt busted but up here in new england those bolts always break cause i have to redo my rear fender flares. but on mine those rocker bolts stripped
