Well a little JT eighty something for the bearings and lots of air pressure and you're good to go, if you know what I mean..........................OPPS!

Don't know Johnny, and could GAF what his thoughts would be.

Yes, made use of it this afternoon. Thank You.

And don't be bustin on my little 1/2 ton, rigged up and ready to go it carries the rear bumper a good couple inches off the pavement. Runs like a Velocity, sits right on her tail and just chits and gits.

Need to be careful there Mayor, "we" know we are talking trailers here, but you may get RIP headed for those archived pics he's talking about.

Re: The Bird has a new perch
 

refresher: Mystic JT-6 by Citgo. The good schitt.
Best helper a 'high-speed" bearing ever had...that's been proven :D

as for "air"...

I guess the lesson in this is that trailer tires are like women: hesitate to run the older ones hard & fast when you don't know where they've been. :doggy:

as for the subject of "the archives", well...my x-wife had a saying: "sometimes the only thing worse than wanting something is getting it"
there's more than one thing that more than one of you don't want to see... :p

Re: The Bird has a new perch
 

There are times the prudent thing is to slow down and enjoy the ride, I guess trailer tires and women are somewhat alike, as you said. Words of wisdom spoken there, any insurance tips of the day?

Re: The Bird has a new perch
 

yea, be prepared to bend waaayyy over.

remember the cat ins market went to sh!t in a short 5 years.

Boat insurance?

Progressive...Call Breen McMahon. I've got his number.

Re: The Bird has a new perch
 

Uh huh...agents, not being underwriters, will do you no good when the meltdown begins...they only determine their margin, not base premiums or availability.

I'm personally in great shape with a real marine policy and excellent coverage with a large stable entity, for a very fair price.

No speed/power fudging to bite you in the azz in the event of a catastrophic loss, which is how alot of folks are getting by now! ;)

Re: The Bird has a new perch
 

Just to clairify, Progressive now has a REAL marine policy (as of 3 years ago) which was much less expensive then ACE (Sy G.). Same exact coverage as I had before with an agreed value $1k deductable, disclosed power the whole "real" deal.

Re: The Bird has a new perch
 

Yes, I understand that progressive has a dedicated "ship's policy" now. I had "watercraft policies with them at one time. Though as a provider, from what I've heard, they are notorious for denying/fighting/underpaying claims.

Re: The Bird has a new perch
 

hey bird dont paint the trailer black it looks good the way it is

Re: The Bird has a new perch
 

Don't include me in this "all"...I have ALWAYS paid the Full blow on sales tax. More then a few thousand at risk for me...
