Cool, next weekend would work better for me as we are going to maine (that big snowstorm earlier predicted is fizzling->out-big surprise).

of course come up when it fits your schedule not mine...

I'll also send CB my phone number just in case it is Sunday and I am back in time. However, that would mean I might miss the ever popular Pro Bowl!!!

cleveland had up 18" forecasted through the weekend... syracuse and buffalo looked bad too.... I am definitely not gonna make it for this weekend so It's looking like next weekend now.... MIGHT be putting the truck and trailer inside a nearly empty semi trailer for the ride up... that would save me quite a bit of fuel

I've been pretty concerned about my maypop tires on my boat trailer and today I scored 4 trailer tires n rims same size as on it for $200 so with my old ones as 4 spares I feel more confident now.

I also picked up a new 12 ton bottle jack at HF today to make loading and unloading easier. I think we are gonna be a go for next weekend... Looking forward to having this done and really looking forward to meeting up with you guys.... even MJ... LOL

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
