This product is for trailer owners and builders seeking robust mudguards that mount away from the trailer's side. The key benefit is a secure, off-set fit for better protection and clearance, though users must determine optimal bracket placement for their specific trailer. This kit includes two 8" galvanized steel mudguards and four heavy-duty steel angle brackets, designed for durability and ease of mounting on new builds or refurbishments.

The 8" mudguards are generally suitable for standard utility trailers, small car trailers, or specific applications on larger trailers where an 8" width is appropriate. Their suitability depends on the wheel size and the desired coverage. The offset fit makes them versatile for various chassis designs.
No, the listing includes two mudguards and four brackets. Mounting hardware (bolts, nuts, washers) for attaching the brackets to the trailer frame and the mudguards to the brackets are not included and must be sourced separately.
Yes, the galvanized steel can be painted. Ensure the surface is clean and properly prepared (e.g., light sanding, primer suitable for galvanized surfaces) before applying paint for best adhesion and finish.
The mudguards have a flat flange on the rear for mounting. You will use appropriate bolts, nuts, and washers (not included) to fasten this flange to the pre-drilled holes on the angle brackets.
The offset fit means the mudguards are mounted away from the side of the trailer, providing extra clearance. This is particularly useful for tandem axle setups, preventing mud build-up between axles, or for trailers carrying wide loads.
The heavy-duty galvanized steel construction suggests good durability for commercial applications. However, it is essential to ensure they meet any specific regulatory requirements for commercial vehicle mudguards in your region.
Ensure all bracket mounting bolts and mudguard attachment bolts are securely tightened. Check that the mudguard is not contacting any part of the trailer frame.
These brackets are designed for custom mounting. You will likely need to drill new pilot holes in your trailer frame to match the bracket's mounting hole pattern. Use the elongated holes on the bracket for fine adjustment.
Verify that the heavy-duty brackets are securely fastened and that the mudguard is properly attached to the brackets. Ensure the correct number of brackets (at least two per mudguard) are used for adequate support.
Small rust spots can occur if the zinc coating is scratched. Clean the area and apply a zinc-rich paint or cold galvanizing spray to protect the underlying steel.
