    Default Pontoon Boat trailer, tongue jack dust cover?

    Hello to everyone again,
    I have yet another question for all of you. I am looking for a replacement plastic dust cover for my tongue jack that has the wheel on it that attached to the front pontoon boat trailer tongue. I am worried that if I don't replace the missing capon top of that jack that water, dirt and other stuff will get inside the gears inside that tongue jack are going to get rusted and wear out prematurely. Thanks again, Bob

    Check the hardware area of your local Lowes, Home Depot, Farm Store, or local Mom & Pop hardware store.

    Great idea. You could cut a piece of plywood with a jigsaw. Just put the base of the jigsaw on a slight angle so you could tap it in place.
