My trailer fenders were too low so today I cut them out along with a lot of other sheet metal to give it room to lay with the fenders on.



Narrowing the track width helped a lot too. I still have to roll the fender lip but I think this is pretty good for it being layed out.



Thought I should check and see if I actually got enough lift to turn and I think I should be okay.
