I have a 2 axle cargo trailer that needs both fenders replaced. It has 15 inch tires and part HP82VR specs out to work nicely. My question is how many are needed for each fender. Thanks

Hi Tim!

I see you already placed an order, but I still wanted to get you an answer to your question.

With that said, I think getting four of the CE Smith Mounting Brackets for Trailer Fender - 13"/14"/15" Wheels - Galvanized Steel - Qty 2 # CE26098G-2 to mount the etrailer Tandem Axle Trailer Fenders w/ Backing Plates - Steel - Qty 2 # HP82VR was the right way to go. Having 4 brackets per side will give you a good amount of support, especially with these fenders being as long as they are.

Again, sorry for not getting you an answer quicker. What are you hauling in your cargo trailer? And did the old fenders rust out?
