Thanks Reel, well at least I slept good last night *:-/

I am not to worried about the spindle, because I assume I do not need to change it I dont have to, but If I do need to, well this thread is going to get much bigger ::) ::)
The load 3500lbs, it is only a 1 axel trailer, and I assume I have been doing it all along with the same set up and I do not trailer it over 5 miles from my house so I should be all set ???

Reel hits a good point!! But maybe the trailer was never rated for the boat, and you are getting the same thing??

Yes with this kit you change the spindle! You will have to look to see how yours come out?

I am sure there will be some hammering involved and a few choice words But you can do it Nicky!

If you have a big vise or two saw horses to put the Hubs on, it will be good when banging out the races, they will just go out the bottom when banging them.

Make sure when putting the new ones in the cone goes up so the races have something to sit in! I hate when they are backwards!!
