I have my boat off of the trailer... MUCH bigger pain with the side bunks in place than it was last time without them.
I also got a bit more work done on the truck.... tires n wheels will go on the trailer tomorrow while I am doing wheel bearings. |

well I went through 2 of my wheel bearings and they are in perfect like new condition tho the seals were badly worn so I picked up 4 of those.... gotta love ezlube spindles. I also pulled the surge brakes off of those two and tossed em ... they were junk and the master was junk too... I have been towing it with no brakes for thousands of miles and I'm tired of it. I ordered 4 dexter electric brake assemblies.... HOPING they make it here thursday so I can be on the road friday morning.
I removed the master cyl, shocks, and etc for the surge breaks and welded the coupler up solid. I installed a break away box and 7 blade rv light cord. I need to pick up and run 50 feet of awg-12 2 conductor for the brakes themselves and wiring will then be done except for connecting the brake assemblies when I get them. I'm wiring two separate runs so that the right wheels are on one circuit and left on another.... redundancy..... I'll do the other two bearings when my brakes arrive |

Well I'm sitting here waiting on my trailer brakes to show up... then I get to finish the trailer and pull the truck in the shop for a couple of quick things on it and if all goes well I can get to bed early and leave out tomorrow morning....
If all goes well I'm hoping to get in early enough Saturday to load the boat, meet up, and head back out but if I can't get in early enough then I'll have to spend the night and do it Sunday. I had a friend who was gonna come with me but he waffled and now it looks like I'm driving 36 hrs solo.... gonna be a long weekend. I'll keep this page updated as things progress. |
