Source for inexpensive fenders?

[splitshot]

Re-vamping the old trailer and can't bring myself to hack up these 62 yo fenders.

Looking for the jeep style. Wheel equipment has some 12"x19"x36" @ $60 ea (seems high).

Any ideas?

Howdy! Check with Northern Tools.com to see what they have. A bunch, the last time I looked. John

Hmmm, the widest they carry is 10" (but they are only $25~ a pop)

I'm thinkin' I really need to go 12" or I'm going to be pulling rocks out of my ear.

fender from Northern Tool + Equipment

Howdy! Could you buy 3 pieces and do a little fab splicing?? John

 

[splitshot]

There's an idea. I had to do that to the axle to get those 32's to fit.

I'll keep that in the "food for thought" column. Thanks.

Well, you could fab up some fender lips out of 1.5 tube, like sliders??

I've got some 11 ga x 1" tubing, but someone at work walked off my sheet metal scraps.

I've seen some 40's with the front fenders done that way, and think it looks awsome.

Best idea yet, John...

Update....

What do ya think?

I cut and bent some tubing/flat stock and built these frames in October last year..

 

[splitshot]

Welded the D-plate yesterday and got 'em mounted today...

So, it took just over a year.

That is some good 'ol fashioned real steel thar.

Thanks, IMO, the rattle cans did more for the appearance than the fenders did.. Least they'll keep the adobe roosters at bay..

Can you make me a set for my SPEN trailer to wrap around my 39.5" Irocs?



Please?

You should see if you can fit your bowling ball in there.

Too late, we've gotten attached to it, now a household icon..

I was thinking you just whip that out for target practice when things got boring.
