Trailer info

[RonSmith]

I bought a used boat. It is my first one and I towed it about 155 miles over a very large mountain. The trailer it sits on seems to go just fine. It is a 24 foot flybridge and I am unsure of the weight. So on to my questions... <br />1. The trailer is rusty but seems sound. What do you do to restore it some sort of former glory?<br />2. The trailer has some sort of brake system. There are a few things on the toungue that leads me to believe this, how do I tell for sure? <br />3. Trailer lights had 3 leads. I get good brake lights and right blinker. No running lights, left blinker flashes hazards. Any suggestions? <br /> Thanks

Re: Trailer info

Hi, Ron.<br /><br />1. Sandblast and paint.<br /><br />2. It must have brakes and you must have them active. Your 25' flybridge must weigh beyond any states brake law.<br /><br />3. Rewire your vehicle and your trailer for at least a 5-wire system.<br /><br />You can get a lot of help from www.championtrailers.com<br /><br />Good luck.
