Ken,

Just a thought. I've seen several people go to the trouble of raising
the trailer slightly by putting in a spacer (steel I or C section)
between the axle and the trailer floor. This has the beneficial
effect of increasing clearance at the back end to avoid bottoming out
when crossing depressions (as well as taking care of your fender
clearance issue). It does require a little more effort (perhaps) than
remounting the fenders, but it may make some sense depending on the
type of trailer you have. I've seen this done very nicely on an older
Cobra trailer housing a Ventus.
