[QUOTE="Bobs boat, post: 472485, member: 25523"] weekend update: weather was decent so I got the rest of the trailer striped down, after 40 some years in and out of the water it was easier to break every other bolt...wire brushed, ground, or sanded all the fitting...got them primed , and painted...I didn't like the lights mounted to a flimsy L bracket ,and needed to borrow a welder anyway to fix the ball coupler, so I welded up a new bracket, and over sized them to offer some protection ...the tube at the coupler was so bent up that I had to cut 3"back to get good metal...upgraded to a 2"ball so it matches the utility trailer.
