The rear wheel openings on your vehicle are constantly sprayed with salt and road debris as you drive. There’s a good chance that mud is getting stuck up in there as well. It’s only a matter of time before the mix of water, salt, and mud causes corrosion to form. Before you know it, you see the dreaded paint bubbles starting to form around the lip of the wheel arch. The good news is that if you catch it in time, you can sometimes replace just the area of the arch that’s rusting out. If paint is already falling off, and you’re able to poke your finger through the side of your vehicle, you may need to replace the entire wheel arch and possibly the inner wheelhouse. Whether the rear wheel opening on your vehicle is just starting to bubble, or is completely rusted out, we have the wheel arch repair panels to help you fix your rust problem.

All of our wheel arch patch panels are stamped steel. The stamping process starts with a 3D scan of an OEM part which produces an OEM-like fitment. The old panel will need to be cut out so that the new one can be welded in its place.

For most trucks, if you’re not as worried about the appearance, you can usually slip these arches over top of your existing panel and secure them with an adhesive like Silaprene. If doing this, we still highly recommend cutting out as much of the rust as possible, and sealing the rusted area with a rust-inhibiting paint, like ZeroRust, prior to installing the new arch.

Each panel has a protective (EDP, Galvanized, etc.) coating for additional corrosion protection. The e-coating leaves a black finish that can be scuffed and painted over. For best finishing results we recommend scuffing the e-coat, priming, and then top coating with an automotive grade paint.

Whether you need to replace the whole wheel arch or just a portion of it, we have the parts that you’re looking for. Replace your rusted wheel arch by ordering this 2002-2008 Dodge Full Size Pickup Upper Rear Wheel Arch (Fleetside Only) Passenger Side from Raybuck Auto Body Parts today.

    I have used off brand wheel arches before and they are junk. Theses are the only ones I will use now. Correct shape and perfect fit, cut out the rust and 3M epoxy it in place. I do rust repair for a living and Raybuck is now my main sheet metal supplier. If they have it in stock it only takes a few days delivery.

    Purchased both rear outer arches to repair dreaded Dodge Rot. Panels arrived with some packaging damage. Panels separated by heavy paper, wrapped in bubblewrap. Original truck panels are .045″ thick, replacement arches are .065″, helpful when welding seams. Panels retained double curve of the original.

    I have a 03 dodge ram with typical wheel arch rust problems. This panel is 16 inches tall and covers all of my rust problems. The metal is thick and fits great. I cut the rusted metal out and slipped this panel under original metal. I also bought the panel bonding adhesive and it worked great. Lightning fast shipping. A little bondo to cover the seams and the repair looks great.

    A this coating will need removed for welding, and we also recommend proper prepping before painting.
