Well, as the girl_face and i are gettin ready to go to the Oregon Yotatech meetup and then to warshington and idaho to visit family, i spoke with my dad about borrowing his trailer...
well, its got some issues, but i have 2 and a half weeks to sort those out...
specs on the trailer...
its was a 1950something 5x7 pop up trailer...
back around 1985 it was moldy and falling apart, so my dad stripped it down to the frame and rebuilt it as a stake side trailer in a very fashionable black and red.(
) meh, it was the 80s... lol...
anywyas, its been used for everything imaginable. its been overloaded, the rear gate has fallen off numerous times, the tires are only 8 inches tall and 3 inches wide, the springs only have 2 in the pack, and with 300 lbs in the back it sags down to the wheel wells...
but thats all about to change... im going to rebuild it, replace those springs and get some larger tires, give it a new coat of paint and run new LED lights and markers, and new trailer plug wiring...
where i sit now...
the white boards were replacements that my dad put in a few years ago because the old ones were rotten...
the floorboard which isnt getting replaced, just painted... lots of work to do...
check out that shackle angle!!!
my dads wiring job and the wheeled jack that was installed a few years ago...
old colors...
new colors... the same sthparkley blue as my hubs and some suspension pieces for the metal and white for the boards so that it matches my truck...
