lights turned out great ...do you live in a high thief area with the chain on the wheel
The forum server is not emailing me when replies are made to this thread…

I'm in South Florida it's all high-theft; there are only three deputies assigned to the 80 sq. mi. area I live, so, the orange chain is my low-tech redneck security solution.

Serenity's sibling, whom I've dubbed "Firefly" got new shoes:

Now, I've done it...

I guess the question now is, do I extend the fenders, or do I replace the axle?

Granted, with the track of my trailer this wide now, it will be more surefooted then a billygoat wearing crampons. But, not extending the fenders will just make it look clownshoes stupid.

This means I need to find a good shop around West Palm Beach. Anyone have suggestions?

Where did you get those adapters?

Why extend fenders? That is the "in look" for man children these days.

The perfect bro-Dozer accessory.

Crap. Now I have to go look it up. Stand by...

Naked tires are illegal in some states.

Besides, I think it rather impolite to chuck mud & rocks at my trail brethren.

You can get a new axle with brakes from Redneck (3" dia. , 5,000 lb, electric brakes) for about $350. Get 6 x 5.5 pattern and use regular spidertrax.
