What is involved in YJ fender removal

Need to bangout an old dent, never removed a fender from a jeep. Is it relatively easy & how many bolts ... or is there other fasteners to contend with? tks

There are 5 or 6 along the joint where the fender is connected to the tub (firewall). Then, there are 4 or 5 along the edge of the grill. It's really pertty simple.

Thanks Jeff, still waiting on a service manual, so I'm trying to get ahead of the game.

Well.... Depending on where you live, it can be a real simple easy job or it can be a total nightmare where all the bolts snap off so you have to drill and tap them or spin out the nuts and have to be cut out, then new nuts welded in place....

On my 86, only 'one' fender bolt came out. I live in the rust belt though....
