I am debating on what to do with my trailer. When I purchased it, the right side had a broken fender bracket. I took it to a welder and had it repaired.
I towed it from Pittsburgh to TN and back, and to Ohio a couple of times.
Today coming back, The same mount broke, and about 30 miles down the road, the second fender mount broke.
Both mounts took out the tire as I had LED marker lights on the fenders, and the screws dug into the tire, and destroyed them. I had one spare, and I was 5 miles from home when the second tire blew.
I wound up using a 5 hole LRB tire from a single axle trailer.
Now I need to replace two tires, and figure out what is causing the mount to crack. It was the front mount on both sides.
I dont know if I should look at tall thin tires, or keep the short 205-65-10 bias tires...
