Re: Trailer Mods
When I did mine I use all SS cotter pins and they never rusted again!
As for the washers you will have to go Galv. I got rid of my traier 4 years after fixing it and they were all still moving!
That said I use the next size roller, so if you have 3/4 holes go to 1" roller, this allows room for the rust to roll out of the center.
which is the main cause of frozen rollers! There is no room for the rust on the shaft to get out, so it just swells and then seizes the roller in place.
You will notice all or most new trailers have a square shaft. Two sides are rounded for the roller to turn right. the flat sides allow the crap to fall off the center.
