Well we are back from Florida.....after going back and forth 2 more times at least, spending $400 on my trailer for new leaf springs, new spare and new axle (all original 1986) and assorted miscellaneous items, at pretty much the 11th hour we decided to .......................rent a boat. I think the final kicker was with the trailer pulled apart I noticed my relatively new tires had some pretty serious negative camber wear on the insides of the tires . (A function of single axle?)
That was pretty much the final straw, one trip up and back is probably 3-4 years of local travel for me. Probably would have been light on the gas estimate too.
I think if I was staying there for 2 weeks I would go for it in the future but for a week it wasn't worth the worry.
So anyway Florida was great. Got to meet up with the Ferminator one morning at our house for breakfast. Although I ate and he watched. Thanks for coming out Ferm. It was really good to meet you.
