Getting ready to do the LFM this afternoon, I read the write up, seems straight forward, but I was curious on opinions whether heating any of the metal before bending would be worthwhile?

Ive never had to heat the metal. Make sure you paint the bare metal you cut to prolong the life of it.

Not sure if GMC flares are different structurally, but there wasn't much of bottom lip to fold up.. it does look like someone was in there before me though..

It always sounds worse than it is. Did one side in a couple hours now I can do a whole truck in about a hour. Amazing how much room it opens up!
