What wood?

I used rustoleum gloss black enamel about 4 or 5 cans of it. The bearings all seem to be in good shape. I'll grease them up real well before I put the wheels back on. Brakes are a hot mess - things growing all over the place and every spring is rusted and has fallen off. I have the guy thats getting the tires pricing the brakes out for me.

And Joe - that new welder magically turned into a crib sdsfhhgdigdhfo

looking good danny. if you came right off the top of the wood over the wheels with some thick sheet metal, wouldn't that be good enough for fenders, as long as your wheels do not hit it when you have weight on the trailer

Are you going to weld in a L angel frame to the deck to hold to board down or just use carage bolts? Make sure you seal the top, bottom and ends of the boards before you call it done. Sealing the boards when they are new helps extend there life.

Mine is held down with angle iron. danny if you need a picture then let me know. It's pretty simple once you see it.

I was just looking at angle at TSC but it was only 72" wide and the deck is 77" wide. They had the fenders too for about $65 each.
I picked up the tires today too. When I get some free time I'm gonna go see whats been living inside the electric brakes for the last 19yrs...

Danny I would say carage bolts would do the trick for the boards. Did it come with ramps? Good luck with the breaks.

Stupid question, but wouldn't you need the carriage bolts either way?

no carriage bolts on mine. angle iron on the ends and sides holds it all down.

most have welded angle iron up front and bolted angle iron in the rear. Dan I have some angle iron at the shop if you need some.

Notsure you do need them if you had metal angel holding it down. I'm not sure how they don't bow and bend. I would do bolts every three or four feet to keep them from bowing either way and angel on the ends to keep the boards from getting tore up.

That's kind of where my head was nester. I think it will last much longer but Bill, your trailer still looks like new so who knows. Just seems like it would be worth while doing it after all the work you put into it, it can't hurt.
