Trailer Walk-board mod...

[Airslot]

Me and Turbo were talking about trailer walk boards so I snapped a few pics and figured I'd post how we do it on the 'shore. *Mostly roller trailers around here and we try to back them in so that the hubs/brakes don't get wet. *I've got a string from the power winch to the end of the trailer that lets me run the winch from the end. *The board is a treated 2x10 that held to the frame with ubolts.




On mine, the board may be a 2x8, I can't remember now. *Anyhow, keeps from getting cold wet feet whilst chasing big rocks, bass for you yankees, in cold weather.

Damm AIR, you should have done that to the trailer you sold me. ;D ;D ;D

That looks good!!

I was just saying the other day to a friend that I had one on the old trailer but never did it to the new trailer??

I guess I have not used in much the last 2 seasons and kind have forgotten about it!

I drive on a a few places I go but thwere are some places that don't allow it, and I need a board.

I don't need to go as far back as you did, but I do need to make that curve in the front.

Drive mine on....the way it sits there is no way to get it on without dunking and noway in hell Im gonna winch it.

I have a hard time winchin it the last couple inches. It seems I bend a winch every year trying. ???


I had some on my little boat though and it was great!! 8)


MJ, what do you mean "dont allow it"....WTH is that all about? :P

[macojoe]

Depends were I go, they no allow and power loading!! I had a guy come running going to bad me from the ramp!!
Then I did it again, no power just got it going and he come running again, I said its not even on!! It is just coasting on!!

This is the deal with the crapy ramps cause they don't want you to wash out the bottom of the ramp.

Rules I hate them!!

Hammer, I'm sorry that I never got to it. Tell ya what I'll do. Me and Turbo will pick up Cy on the way and I'll buy the coffee and donuts on a slow day this winter and we'll BS about V's for an afternoon. I'd say we'd go to Irish Eyes, but I gots to drive home ya know ;D

Hey Air: Aint we suppose to intice him down here with doughnuts and coffee. Sounds like a nice guys day away. Where is CY located?

I dont have pics yet but I installed the boards on the front V of my trailer. That gives me enough room to hook up the cable with boat floating at rear rollers.

Mine is 2 X 8 salt treat but I added traction tape to mine. Its $2 a foot at Youngs Old Shop, So you might be able to get it at Lowes for about 50 cents a foot. LOL

Nice looking Deere you got. I got one for fathers day 05' "LT150". Now the wife and kids want to fight over who mows the lawn.

Heres a question for ya. Is it a lawn Mower or a Grass cutter?

Turbo

Turbo, Cy is in OC and Hammer is in Lewes/Rehobeth area. Mine is just an L120 or L130, cant remember. It's definately a lawn mower. We got the reel and real mowers here at work. Grass cutter, thats what you see the highway crews usning. :)

Airslot,
who is particular 'bout his grass
