I need to replace a bunk on my trailer, easy job but what sort of wood should i use? what about carpet? what about glue to hold the carpet to the bunks..or should I use staples?
single carpet thin carpet. look at a new trailer, what i get for home depot, is twice as heavy. i use untreated, and the chemical in treated lumber eats metal fasteners. the brackets totally depend on condition. if you are launching in salt water probably.
I would knock everything apart, replace the hardware and sand and repaint the brackets.
not unless there are cracks. I assume its bent to the front of the trailer. Its probably bent from all the times the boat has been shoved up on to the bunks coming off the water.the bend doesn't concern you?
