Re: Zinc Plated or Galvanized
Hey Mulv,
I have been overhauling my tandom EZ Loader trailer and have been buying my parts from Eastern Marine in Newark DE. So far I have replaced all four drum brake assemblies, jack, winch cable, lights, surge brake coupler, both equalizers and replaced all brake lines with stainless steel lines. Yeah, I know, I should have replaced the drum brakes with disc brakes, but right now, money is an issue. As you know, I have a leaky 60 gallon fuel tank to fix or replace and some regular engine maintenance issues to perform before striper season. I know you live in the Philly area and the reason I mentioned Eastern Marine is the quality of the parts they have supplied me so far, price, and the quick delivery. If I order on-line, and select UPS Ground, (cheapest) I receive the parts next day in Doylestown PA. I haven't ordered parts such as u-bolts yet but EM also has hot dipped and stainless steel fasteners. Ed G.

Re: Zinc Plated or Galvanized
Hey Ed, Glad to see you here on the site. I'm familar with Eastern Marine, their prices are the best around in my opinion. I ordered these bolts hastily over Ebay because they were cheap and it looks like I may have gotten what I paid for.

Re: Zinc Plated or Galvanized
Zinc plated stainless is one thing, but "zinc" as far as I know are the standard grade bolts that any hardware store (lowes, Hdepot) would carry.
I could be wrong, its happened before...hey once I met this guy Skools and I thought he was a fairly "normal" guy. ::) ;)

Re: Zinc Plated or Galvanized
I was wondering if they were cadmium plated. I did a Google search and found this to be interesting.
