Trailer redo
Well besides some finishing touches I`m finally done.
Trailer started needing some TLC
only pic I got on the trailer lol:
Sandblasted, 2 part epoxy primer and paint to match boat:
All carpeted wood filler pieces replaced with heavy gauge diamond plate
Also added my version of a drive guard plus all new tires
All new electric brakes, seals and bearings.
Pulled every wire and ran all new thru out.
Every connection is soldered + dialectic grease + 2 layers of heat shrink. (this took the longest to do)
Every bolts and negative connection is stainless steel.
LOVE this thing!

All new bunks and carpet:
Finally I went crazy with the LEDS:
under the trailer too following the red/white theme.
Side turn signal under the marker lights.
I should be able to see the bottom of any launch I`m hoping

She don`t quite fit thou :
Wish I had a nice big pole barn like Mike Tcat but ....I don`t
so I red neck it up
BTW, anyone local to Chicagoland area looking for paint, sandblast etc.. the guy I found did a great job at a great price.
To sandblast, prime and paint was under $1000. He also ran new wires, cut and fit the diamond plate and built the drive guard . All that around $1800.
Can`t beat that, I had another quote for just paint at $5K
