Where is the right rear fender located?
1 Answers
The fender is the outer body panel that covers the wheel, named for its resemblance to a bird's wing in shape and position on older vehicle bodies. Here are the specific details: 1. Installation: Fenders are divided into front and rear fenders based on their installation position. The front fender is installed at the front wheel and must accommodate the maximum space required for the wheel's rotation and movement. Therefore, designers use "wheel travel diagrams" to verify whether the fender's design dimensions are appropriate based on the selected tire model and size. 2. Function: The fender's role is to prevent sand, stones, and mud kicked up by the wheels from splashing onto the underside of the vehicle body during driving. As a result, the materials used must be resistant to weather aging and have good formability and processability. Some vehicles' front fenders are made of a certain elastic plastic material. Plastic materials offer cushioning properties, enhancing safety.
