the trailer switch..
last ya heard i busted the red trailer in half and was rebuilding a differant trailer.
the white trailer's winch was thrashed so i swapped the red trailer winch with it. the 2x4's were toast so i tore them off and put new pressure treated ones in there place. she aint none to pretty. but i am about to get ugly with an wire brush on the real rusty parts. note the primer-blackish paint-in places. first coat of paint final coat of paint. carpeted the bunks got it all wired up. she is ready to go -i was soaking the bunks with water to make loading the boat easier.. under the boat. had to move the winch down and ahead.. oh yeah i know about the flat tire i am out of gas for my torch so i will have to take it across the road to a friends and use his torch. we can get it off there.. this battle is over finally now it is time to butt heads with the boat again.. zooker

Anyway you can put some bigger tires on it, perhaps a lift kit? Just a idea, but bigger tires would make me a lot happier ifn it was mine.

Man going 90 with those shopping cart wheels could make the bearings hot enough to melt.
