I bought a 1985 Larson boat to get the engine, transom plate and the outdrive. The trailer looked king of old and rusty on the picture, so I was just going to either donate the boat and the trailer to anybody who wants it. But upon closer inspection, I realized that the trailer is a Shoreland'r with the rollers and despite being rusty and having really old tires (the couple I checked were from 2005 and I'm surprised they made it home 100 mile trip), the trailer was in a restorable condition. I will repaint it and clean it from the rust. It has a couple problems with the brakeline, broken in one place and completely drained of the brake fluid. The brake actuator is ok, however, the main container does not have a filler cap and tbh, I just dont know where to look for it. It has about 1/2 to 5/8" diameter opening ( will have to measure it) and probably there was a plastic filler cap. The question is, where can I get it, or should I just go to the Copperstate Nuts and Bolts and find a short bolt of an appropriate diameter and use it as a cap? Thank you.
if needed, I can post a pic of the trailer and a brake actuator.
