Hi all,

So I went wheeling this weekend and hit every skid plate, sliders, and even front bumper. I didnt do any high speed wheeling or anything crazy. Randomly I got this miniscule dent my wife keeps bugging me about (look above rear fender). The thing is very noticeable at distance but inexistent when you get close to it. Very annoying. Any tips on how to fix this?

Time for a lift. (Easy spending other peoples money :rock:)

I would take it to a few collision or dent removal shops for their expert opinion and pricing.
I am having way too much fun wheeling this thing on 33s.Love the challenge. But yeah, if I keep hitting everything... I pick lines carefully but still, it is unavoidable.

Look into paintless dent repair. It’s not expensive for one simple dent like you have. You can even find DIY videos on YouTube. Basically heat it up some and pop the dent out by pulling it with a suction cup.

paintless dent removal place should be able to get that fairly easy.
Thanks. This will calm the wife down.

Go wheeling again and put your efforts of putting a matching dent on the passenger side.

or what others above have recommended.

Ive had good luck with a $20 paintless dent repair kit from local Auto Zone or ORileys.

Was it a wooded area.

If so that may be part of it if your rig had sudden pitch from side to side.
