Not sure if this is the correct place for this or if it should go in the trailer forum so my apologies.Since my boat resto is in a good place, I'm turning my attention over the winter to giving the trailer some tlc.  Its in good shape overall, just needs a bit of clean up, replace some old rusted out brackets, etc.  I am going to replace all bunk brackets, as well as bunk boards.  I'm trying to figure out a way to lift the boat up off the bunks, one side at a time, to replace the hardware and the bunks.  Anyone have any tips and tricks for this?  I have access to all kinds of jacks, engine hoist, etc.  I really only need to left the boat an inch or so to perform the work.  I've read where guys have lowered the tongue jack all the way, blocked the back of the boat, then raised the tongue, but I'm unsure if this will work to get the front of the boat high enough to enable me to remove the bunks, etc.   I'd like to do this at home in the garage over the winter rather than waiting for spring and dunking the boat while I work on it in the parking lot (not fun if you forget something!).Suggestions appreciated!</blockquote>
