Trailer overhaul....OCD !
Permalink  

So...the trailer has served me well..basic maintenance over the last 15 years...

what started out as putting some new planks...turned into this...

left to do...blast and squirt the wheels.

Looking good there Rodger. Lucky it wasn't out of commission for too long as it would have been tough to bring home your merchandise after shopping.

Nice job! Bet you didn't think it was going to turn into a restoration job. You got your own bead roller? Wish I had one.

Just the wheels left to do, or buy new when they go on sale at princess..

brakes are all done, everything coated with never seize, wheel bearings and seals....

good for another 15 years...

 

the bead roller is a cheap one from Woodward fab...under $200 , but does a great job, 18" throat.

 

thanks for the biggrin
