Re: Repairing brake system on trailer
I just grabbed a $30 Skil angle grinder from Walmart. Too late to test it tonight unfortunately. I went out to the trailer and pulled the tongue off. It was being held in by two grade 307a (grade 1) bolts....Grade...1...bolts....
The threads that made contact with the edge of the tongue were crushed in. I feel like these things could have snapped at any moment. I read on the actuator kits to use grade 5 bolts or higher just to hold that on. I am quite sure the tongue should have the same grade bolts. That's insane.
