Playing in the snow and my passenger fender had enough lol it was only held together on the bottom by rust. Not too mad at myself because of the fun i had. It was pretty easy to replace being that i have a parts jeep in garage and its fender was in good shape. Just thought i would post the info i have on how to do it. The info comes from the 1996 ZJ chrysler manual that i have on cd.
