Well, the list includes replacing leaf springs on both axles, change out wheels, bearings and removing the four brake drums, change tongue connector and wheel stand.....

The eye on starboard rear spring has broken on the forward end, so that tire has slid back against the fender. Thinking of jacking up just to replace that leaf, and then do the remaining leafs, wheels and bearings after getting the boat off the trailer. Or, I could do them all now at a friend's shop if I dragged it down there. (He has torch and the air tools we'd need) Just skeptical of a 2 mile ride with that rear axle not fixed. Could I remove the two rear tires and get it there on one axle....?????
Thoughts?
