Stormin 9,981 #1 Posted April 20, 2020 Wheels on my Saxon trailer have got a bit scruffy over the years. So this morning I decided to give them a freshen up. So off they came, but I think I went a tad to far. Quote Edit Hide all signatures I've been to Midsomer and survived. 1975 Raider 10. Future project. 1978 Sears/Roper. GT16. 1978 C-121 custom.

I was going to take it off, Eric, and the floor. But the bolts are dome headed and just spun. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,706 #6 Posted April 20, 2020 I just hate it when they put carriage bolts in wood. I woke up today, and decided to stay home...and spend the day on Red Square. No round head bolts turning here. In fact, I got out of going to the grocery store with Chris...plus, she brought me back some Vodka. Just to rinse my hands of course. 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

8ntruck 6,991 #10 Posted April 22, 2020 Looks good. I'm going to have to do a similar job on my little trailer this summer. I treated it to new tires & tubes last year. While I was doing that, I noticed several fatigue cracks and rust spots that need attention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
