Default Re: Distance Between Tire, Outigger, and Wheel Wel

The wheel well retrofit is free for the downloading at http://www.home.earthlink.net/~jwetherbee1/ This is a much easier and quicker solution to getting the plans. This concept of relining the wheel well and forming it to a curved style is the concept of Joe Wetherbee, the present editor of the National TrailManor Chapter. While traveling in Mexico a couple years ago, his TM blew a tire that resulted in a lot of damage to his trailer. In an effort to fill the gaping hole in the side of his trailer, he closed it up in this manner. On the way home, he lost a second tire. This time there was only black marks on the trailer. The plans you see were initially drawn by Joe. While our chapter was retrofitting wheel wells on our trailers, it became obvious there were differences in trailers and that certain steps would help simplify this project. I was able to compile these concepts into a final set of instructions. Please help your self to the plans.

Happy and safe trailering

Hal
