More Trailer maintenance

[nightfighter]

64 hog clips, 64 washer, 6 new rollers, and I will finish replacing the rollers on my Loadrite trailer. Had to spray with power washer to loosen things up so the arms with the rollers would move with the boat when loading. Had two that were pizza cutters in my hull last year.... Then change out the coupler.

New product to me... CRC Instant Galvanize spray. Neutralizes any rust and coats with gray galvy. No scraping or sanding required. Rust covered, neutralized, gone. Trailer looks 'almost' new. Highly recommend this product.

Going to put off removing the four brake drums until next year. Not going over the road this fall, just hauling. So will put off that 500.00 job until net spring. Going to go without brakes

Went without brakes for the last 5 years. Fixed em this summer. Refastened the entire trailer last year. Fixing rollers and replacing cotter pins and washers is an annual thing for me. Old trailers are cheap to keep but expensive on time.

I don't know, Ross, I think I would have sold the roller trailer and bought a brand new aluminum bunk trailer. Less maintenance.
