Spaced out fender
 
Much ado about nothing. I spaced the fenders out by just adding some angle
iron and bolting them on. Did this so that if I crunch one, I can buy
another and bolt it on with little or no fab. They're pretty stiff.

Wired the lights up and everything. Took it to DMV, and the ONLY thing they
looked at was the VIN. Said I didn't need to title if I didn't want to, and
didn't need a plate since the trailer portion was under 700#. The plate
reads 2250GVWR, but they're the experts. I am having it titled to make it
easier to track if it gets away from me. Turned down the plates, though, as
they said that would only be a problem if I took it to another state. Ain't
gonna happen.

Now, to get it all painted. Rain forecast for a couple of days. Rats.
Tach/hour meter should be here tomorrow from Northern Tools.

I like your fenders. I've seen a lot of trailers with crap for fenders,
usually from way back after I catch the first rock.
