I'd say take off the plastic inner fender and get it from the bottom. My 2 cents

did u remove the mud flaps?

the first time i tried to take off a supra fender it took me about 2 hours. every other time has taken me about 20 minutes. if you dont have the plastic inner fender off then it reeeeally needs to come off. like someone else said you just need a long extension for the one on the header panel. should be able to snake your arm around and get a ratchet on the first one.

First : put your car in the air, pop the tire off, take the inner splash guard out.
Second : Pop off your mudflap, 2 bolts underneath 10mm, on the inside , comes out with splash guard IIRC.
Thrid : Take off the frame to fender brace, 10mm.
Fourth: Take off the bolts along the top in the engine bay 10mm, one behind the door, use a 10mm wrench.
And lastly Fifth: Take a long ass extension and a deep 10mm socket and take off the two that hold the nose peice to the fender, Unbolt the bumper, aswell as pop off the trim and the fender is off.

thanks man does the tire HAVE to be off or can i work around it? i ask this because i dont have a good enough impact to get them off and no breaker bar or anything im pretty limited on tools.

If your wheels are on tight enough that you need an impact or breaker bar to get them off, they're on WAY too tight. 76ft-lbs is NOT that much torque, and it's what they should be at.

I would think you'd want the wheel off.

wow... i've come to some pretty grim points in my supra-life, but when it's not an option to take off my wheel.. thats when i know it's over

buy new lugbolts for your hub, get that wheel off, replace the broken lugbolts and then continue
