Tips for Replacing and Installing Trailer Fenders

• Do your best to match the dimensions of the new fender to your old one.
  • If a fender was damaged during a blowout, use the opposite fender to get the dimensions.
• As with all trailer maintenance, don’t forget to chock your wheels before getting started.
• For a bolt-on fender, use your existing mounting hardware, if possible.
  • The old mounting bolts or screws might be stripped or rusted, in which case you’ll need to tap them out and buy new hardware.
• If removing an old, welded-on fender, either carefully chisel it off yourself or take your trailer to a weld shop to have the fender professionally removed.
• Don’t forget to prime and paint the new fender to keep it from rusting (and to match your trailer’s finish).
• Before you start drilling, position the fender where you need it and center it over your wheel well.
  • Mark where you need to drill (measure twice, drill once).
• Don’t tighten down the mounting hardware completely until you’re sure the fender is mounted correctly.
