Quickfarms Posted January 17, 2020 Author Share Posted January 17, 2020 I have one broken on my 78 RL. Do you have a right one I could make a mould from? My left side is good as are my brackets. This setup started with the 1975 year model.Are the Hayward ones different?The truth is I need a drivers side bracket for the 1985, it all rusted out but that's the only rust on the truck so I am wondering if it was changed at some point.The 1975 Hayward Mack has different style ones on it that I think are ugly and need a bunch of repairs So I was hoping to find some replacements in better condition before I spend a bunch of time fixing what I have Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/60395-fender-extensions/#findComment-440595 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Get me some good detailed photos of what you have. My truck is also Hayward built and 1978. I can compare your's to mine and quite possibly make you a set or dimensioned drawings to fabricate them yourself if the same as mine. I have a broken plastic on on the right side; left is fine.

Quickfarms Posted January 20, 2020 Author Share Posted January 20, 2020 The white truck is a 1985 and I like that style better but the drivers side bracket is rusted out, and it's the only rust I have found on the truck. The truck started its life with Texaco and i found it in California. At some point in its life the frame rails were replaced My 1975 has a different style on it and they need some serious repairs Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/60395-fender-extensions/#findComment-440873 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 I really don't have a good photo of mine but the mounts are a series of flat strap and square tubing welded together in a framework. This is the only photo I can find for now. I'll be out to the shop tomorrow and can grab more: Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Amos V. Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Rob what would you charge for making a matching pair of these? Absent the steel brackets. I can fabricate the brackets myself.

Rob Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Hi there. I appreciate your inquiry and it could be done, but such a small quantity wouldn't be cost effective I'm afraid. I don't have current stock of materials and to garner favorable pricing, a much larger order than a small run would consume would be required. A cursory glance appears a run of four pairs, (eight parts in total) would consume a very minimum order, but pricing would still be close to $225.00 per side in black, or white gelcoat. A bit much for a hobby expense other than a discerning restoration. What I build however will not be subject to breakage like the originals. Thanks, Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
