Could use perimeter lighting (fixtures that hold outside flood lights for example). Pint the ceiling with the most reflective paint you can find and point the flood lights up and bounce the light off the ceiling. They also make fixture that hold T8 blubs and reflect the light up instead of...

Did I miss your move to Wyoming? Where at if you don't mind me asking

I play a game others call golf. Not sure this is what I'm doing but I do enjoy the social atmosphere of it. You know why they call it golf? It was the only four letter word left.

I called around asking about replacing just a spindle, and other options. I just decided I was just going to replace the axle and call it good. OEM from Karavan was $130 plus shipping. I thought this to be ridiculous. Took the hubs off the axle and noticed it wasn't the spindle that was...

The axle is square and striaght, the spindle is bent. Believe it or not, it is within spec of the manufacturer. I should just suck it up and buy a new axle with the spindles. I see I can buy just the spindles but I am no welder nor do I know of anyone who does.

Axle is straight and square, Spindle is bent.

But a bent spincle would create a different wear patttern. On the outside of one tire and the inside of the other from what I have read and picture I have seen

Tire date was 2021. Here are pictures of the Axel spindle. On the bent one, the front of the hub is 3/16" farther out from the leaf spring than the back of the hub. Axles measure square.

I agree. In this case, maximum tire pressure was 60 psi. I inflated to 45 psi. The wear pattern on the tires screams over inflation. everyone I have shared the phots with have said the wear is due to over inflation. Thus all my questions as this I have not seen before.

Trailer is square. I'm leaning towards bad OEM tires but want to check everything before putting the new ones on and seeing the same issue.

Did that. Also checked it against my Pick up pressure readers, my wifes car pressure reader, and the air pump pressure reading at Costco. I thought maybe the same but nope

I agree with everything you said - thank you. Trailer was purchased by the original owner in 2021. I purchased it from him in 2024. I have called the OEM tire company not looking for warrant claim (well past it as it was good for 1 year for the original purchaser). I sen them the pics. They...

If anyone recalls, I have a new to me boat trailer I purchased about a year ago that wore through a set of tires in under 500 miles - right down to the cords. When I bought the trailer seond hand, the tires were originals that cam on the trailer and they looked like they had zero miles on them...

I'd add one more comment. With a boat the sie you have, and electric start is almost a must have. They are about $60-85 on Amazon. Without it, to pull start it you almost have to be outside of the boat. It is awkward at best turning the mud motor sideways while keeping the prop out of the...

That's almost like cheating. I have seen them around here but rarely. One thing you might want to take a look at is the Facebook group that makes and uses scratcher motors. They too break through the ice and they have methods of getting back onto the ice. Your machine might be on the heavy...

It was much higher but I don't recall the exact number and the trailer is 100 miles away from me. Tire size is 4.80x12B tires Here is the trailer. It is made by Karavan but this one is labeled differently...

If so, why only one tire? Both were inflated to 45 lbs and when I notice the wear I checked the the inflation and both were at 42psi.
