Availability of Mounting Brackets for Tandem Axle Teardrop Fenders w/ Backing Plates

Updated 09/26/2025 | Published 04/23/2025

Question:

For fenders part HP92VR, what mounting brackets are needed per one fender? Do you have a video or diagram on how these are installed with the brackets? Is there anything else needed besides hardware to install these fenders? Thank you.

Hi Shelby; the Tandem Axle Teardrop Fenders w/ Backing Plates # HP92VR are typically welded on for installation. We do not have any brackets available to mount these on a trailer. If you take a look at the attached picture you can see the welds along the top of the fender.

It is also acceptable to bolt them on but you will need to choose hardware based on where you're mounting them and the type of surface. This is something you can pick up at your local hardware store. If you want to use brackets you certainly can but you will have to make them yourself.

Hi Shelby, did you decide to weld the fenders on, or did you go with bolting them instead? I'm curious to know how it worked out for you, as it could help others facing the same decision.
