Trailer fenders

Does anyone know where I can get a set of new trailer fenders either chrome or stainless. They need to be 8 in wide for a tandem axle trailer. How much should I expect to pay? Thanks

i picked up some cheep from northern tool catalog but deff not chrome lol payed about 50 dollars i think been awhile

Dossangers was selling a brand new set in the v-drive section awhile back. You might send him a pm.

K Flat,I sent him a PM and responded on both threads he had no luck here.

i bought mine at a trailer supply store.. I think i paid like 29 each.. Then i got them chromed myself.. I get a good deal on chrome so mine weren't to bad but i think there usually pretty pricey.

I just dropped $600 on 10" pollished stainless fenders 66" long at KTW In Rancho Cucamonga (909) 581-3000. They have whatever you want.

I got mine new from Competitive in So. Cal. I think I paid less than $400 for the pair. Ifd I had to do it all over again, I'd go polished stainless, but that was a little out of the budget first time around. :coffeycup

They carry steel ones, about $120 for the pair ... then you can get them chromed. Stainless is the way to go though.

Ouch $600. I was hoping they would be cheaper. Thanks for the number I will give them a call.

V Drive Jerry I like the projects better than the finished product most of the time the hull looks great sitting on the referbed trailer. Rite now what the finished product ends up looking like is endless.I assume you are going with yellow on the hull.

So are you saying you never finish anything?? :D I will be painting the trailer silver to match the restoration. Going back to original....

Jerry that will look nice.I have finished 2 restros and now on my third this one is going slow but I am doing every thing this time,and that with redoing things you have all ready done as you go makes for a longer project.I am in no hurry it will get done when it gets done.

Are the ones you bought polished aluminum or chrome?They were chrome. Not the best, but for the price, they were good enough.

Here comes the stupid question. Why is chrome not as good? Is it a matter of strength or durability?

Chrome looks just as good new but iis more vulnerable to rust.

A chrome plating job is only as good as the prep of the metal under it. Less expensive jobs show a slightly less than perfect prep job. The metal has to be polished before it goes through the plating precesses, and there are definately different grades of polishing. These fenders , when you looked closely, showed polishing marks under the chrome, not completely mirror perfect. Production chrome job. From 2 feet away, you can't see it, and they look fine. They're probably not copper plated under the chrome either. They were definately a budjet thing, but like I said, for the most part, they look awsome.
The reason I like stainless over chrome is that if you do happen to get fine scratches in your polish job, and lets face it, boat trailers are continually around sand and mud and dust, and people will sit on fenders, and set things on them, so they WILL get scratched, is that you can polish stainless fenders. Scratches in chrome are permanant. :coffeycup
