Re: Changing from single to tandem axle
Shabah: I haven't had a chance to have a maintainence program. Just bought the boat, 350C.i.,prop, and trailer. Pulled the cage, engine stand, seat stands and rigging; cut them up with a torch. All carbon steel in a saltwater environment. Rebuilt everything, except trailer. Now it's time to get it online.
Yes, I agree with the lack of maintainence; the engine was a mess, tie wires/suction line for radiator hose.Duct tape-you name it. One project at a time though and I'll have a nice setup.
Silvertip- after looking at the explaination of the equalizer, I don't beleive the springs I just bought will work. They have the ends which slide up in the brackets in the rear and bolt in the front. Looks like with the equalizer- bolt front/bolt equalizer--bolt equalizer/bolt rear. That would be using the spring clips with bolt holes, not the slip-in type bracket on back of spring.
Maybe I can use those springs on another trailer around here. Thanks don
