How to Determine Fender Clearance when Timbren Axle Less TASR5200S03 is Installed on Trailer
Published 03/25/2020
Question:
How can you be sure the tire clearance to the fender will be acceptable? Im looking to replace a existing torsion axle set at 10 degrees down.

Expert Reply:
Typically you need 3 inches of clearance from the top of the tire to the bottom of the trailer fender. So to determine if you'd have enough fender clearance you'd need to know the tire diameter and you can go from there.
When the Timbren Axle Less part # TASR5200S03 is installed the center of the spindle (also wheel center) will be 7-5/16 inches below bottom of frame. So you would need to measure the distance from the bottom of your trailer frame to the bottom of the fender to know where the wheel center will be relative to it keeping in mind you'll want at least 3 inches here. If you can get me the fender distance mentioned and your tire size I can do this calculation for you.
