Using Fulton Single Axle Trailer Fender # F008594-2 On A McClaine Galvanized Boat Trailer

Question:

I’m interested in the Fulton poly boat fenders for 14” wheels, silver. I’ve got a galvanized single axle McClane trailer. My existing galv fenders bolt to a 4” wide step on each end. Two 3/8” holes 5” apart. Will the Fulton fit up?

The Fulton Single Axle Trailer Fender # F008594-2 does have a 4-1/8" wide mounting bracket slot, so they will fit nicely with the 4" wide brackets on your McClaine trailer. The mounting holes on the fender are 3-3/4" apart though, so you would have to put a new hole in the current fender bracket, but as long as you are comfortable doing that it will work nicely. The Fulton Single Axle Trailer Fender # F008594-2 is 42-5/8" long overall and 12-3/4" tall so we would want to make sure that this matches or is at least similar to the current fender. I have attached the fender dimension below.

Thanks Jesse. The fender steps on mine are 32-1/2 apart vs the 30-1/4 so unless there’s some play there I don’t think they will fit. Also the height is 15 vs 12-3/4. If you think they will fit, what is the return policy if I give them a try. Thanks

@MikeM There really is not any play there, so it sounds like the Fulton fenders we discussed would not fit unless you relocate the brackets on your trailer somehow. The only 15" tall single axle fenders that we have are going to be steel fenders such as part # HP89FR.
