I'd like to replace the current screws with new screws with locknuts, but have been told that the fenders are meant to be able to easily rip off in the case of a tire blow-out.
Is that the case?
Then how do we keep the darn things from flying off on the highway?
Thanks!
Have the exact same trailer. Good info. I will upgrade. My big issue with those fenders is the way they extend down and curve in between the tires. Makes it a real PITA putting in the X chocks. I keep wanting to cut that off and make the fender more or less straight across. Anybody think of a downside to that?
