Direct-fit left or right rear wheel housing designed for 1973–1991 Chevy trucks and Blazers. This replacement wheelhouse restores structural integrity and prevents further rust and road debris damage to the rear wheelwell area. Built from heavy-gauge steel with a corrosion-resistant coating and engineered to match original OE contours, it provides a durable, long-lasting repair that simplifies body restoration and ensures proper panel alignment and tire clearance.
Features:
  • Fits 1973-1991 Chevy Truck and Blazer rear wheelhousing applications (left or right).
  • Sold as a left or right rear wheelhouse; direct OEM-style replacement for rusted or damaged wheelwells.
  • Heavy-gauge steel construction with corrosion-resistant primer for long-term durability.
  • Restores wheelwell protection from road debris and moisture, preventing further frame and body corrosion.
  • Engineered to match original contours for correct panel fitment, tire clearance, and easy alignment.
  • Ideal for restorations and rust-repair projects; reduces vibration and maintains structural mounting points.
Installation / Application:
  • Difficulty: 3/5
  • Estimated time: 2-4 hours (per side)
Suggested Tools:
  • jack and jack stands
  • angle grinder or cutoff wheel
  • drill and spot-weld cutter
  • MIG/TIG welder or sheet-metal screws for temporary fitment
  • clamps and pliers
  • hammer and dolly set
  • wire brush or grinder wheel
  • sheet-metal screws (for test fit)
  • seam sealer
  • rust inhibitor/primer
  • automotive paint and supplies
  • safety gear (gloves, eye protection, respirator)
Instructions:
  1. Prepare vehicle: disconnect battery, raise and securely support the vehicle, and remove the rear wheel and any trim or inner fender liners obstructing the wheelhouse.
  2. Assess and mark the damaged area; grind or drill out spot welds and cut away the rusted section back to sound metal.
  3. Test-fit the replacement wheelhouse, trimming as needed to match surrounding panels and ensure correct alignment and tire clearance.
  4. Clamp the panel in place and tack-weld or fasten with sheet-metal screws at multiple points to verify fit and panel gaps.
  5. Complete welding in short runs to minimize heat distortion; allow cooling between runs and re-check alignment frequently.
  6. Grind welds smooth, treat exposed metal with rust inhibitor, and apply seam sealer to all exterior seams to prevent moisture intrusion.
  7. Prime and paint the repaired area to match the vehicle, then reinstall inner fender liners, trim, and the wheel.
  8. Lower the vehicle, reconnect the battery, and perform a final inspection for fitment, clearance, and leak-free seams.
