Default been gone for a while, now I'm back with a fury

What's up peeps !!! been gone for a while, been spending most of my time and money on my other baby (my camaro).

i got a quick question, i think those of you that have rockers will be able to better answer my question, you guys think i'd be able to cut my rear fender (which i think is made of sheet metal) with a dremel tool?

one more thing. what kind of tool can i use to change my trany fluid? the fill is in such an awkward spot under the oil tank.

You can do it with a dremel tool..but you're going to need a great many cutting bits. Lets put it this way.. it took me 2 large cutting wheels to cut my "football air cover".. and that's soft aluminum. Soo.. a fender with what? 1/4" steel? Yeah, its possible, gonna take a long long time, and probably a dozen cutting wheels.

I cut my sportster rear fender with a dremel tool and it took 3 or 4 disks. It is only like 16 or 14 gauge steel. U will have no problems and u will have better control with the dremel.
