Here you can see all, the old trailer, the old truck, the new trailer, and the boat



$2500, *Thats alot of fixing!!

I rebuilt my hole under of my old trailer with out ever taking the boat off. except for roller replacment.

Check that axle also!! It looks pretty rusty, they rust under neath were you can't see, tap with hammer to see the holes *:o

you can get Galv Axle, new springs, Ubolts, Hubs & Berrins for about $350 + shipping

Change all in a afternoon!! *Much better then $2500 for new if you don't have it and the rest of the tailer is in good shape!

and yes Champion Trailers is the way to go!! I just got a new catalog for them today!! ;D

That is an exceptionally nice trailer, I have found 2 different manufatureres who will sell you a very nice tandem trailer for under $2000.00 though. One of them was aluminium and posted on here a few montha ago, I am sure someone saved the address.

Capt.Bill
Thanks for the info on the trailer. Checked out your boat in the gallery. SWEEEEET ;D ;D

Well, it looks like I wont be doing any work on the trailer I have now. By accident I figure, I managed to contact the smuck I bought the boat and trailer from, and he answered the phone. He stated he cant send me the title back because its the wrong title. So it appears he knew that all along. Delaware is exstremely tuff with trailer titles. I pleaded with DMV and with the crime unit who checks all the vins #'s, they said no title, no registration :'( :'(
So it looks like I'll be out shopping for one shortly :'(

Here in MA. we just say we have a home made trailer that is less the 2000# and there is no title needed.

There are so many illgeal trailers here!! I must say that the one I have now is the first leagle trailer I have ever own!!

No one ever checks trailers here! I was stoped by a cop once and he looked at the reg. *that said home made and 2000 pounds, and said ok have a good day! *That was with the V20 on it.

I have 3 friends with 23 footers and a 25 footer and all there trailers are registered that way *:o

Thats to bad!! *But maybe its a sign that you need a new trailer??

[msbhammer]

Yeah, well it looks like I will be doing a stealth run over to MacJoe's. Hopefully the Blazer is broken down and teh shotgun is out of arms reach ;D ;D

I didn't have my title either. I'm in NC.

I was able to contact the guy who's name the title was in. This was 2 owners ago (not the person I bought from)!

Since I was able to contact him, all he had to do was apply for a duplicate title then transfer it to me. It actually had nothing to do with the previous owner at all since he never put it in his name.

Bottom line is if you can find out who's name it was in last (maybe check boat registration to find out) then if you can reach them have them apply for a duplicate and transfer to you.

That should be possible in any state IMO but I'm not sure.

Also, I replaced u-bolts, springs, rims, tires, lights, winch, bearings, bearing buddies, etc. for under $500 counting tax on my 1981 Cox tandem trailer. Wasn't a bad job if I had more tools! Impact wrench would'a made short work of getting the old nuts off the u-bolts! That was my biggest complaint.

[macojoe]

you never going to get mine thats for sure!!

But I will let you reg. here in ma as a homemade under $2000 ;D about $35 a year
