[QUOTE="tcampbell011, post: 305471, member: 10739"] Now that you say it, I think that's exactly what I'm going to do. The rust isn't even THAT bad. I already ordered a new winch and coupler. I am still looking for a rolling jack for it, the one I had before was pretty bad. How should I scuff up the painted areas on the trailer? I was thinking maybe a wirewheel on a drill, that way I'll get all the loser stuff. It seems really sturdy to me, I'm not an expert though. Is there any way to test without damaging it? It's been painted over on the inside and there's aluminum covering the outside. I AM planing on replacing the wood on the backside of the transom, I'm not sure if there's a name for that piece. Stone- I REALLY like your build and I might copy a lot of it. [list] [*]That aluminum ladder idea is ingenious, did it work well for you? That would save me a ton of money. [*]Do you like the uflex steering system?? [*]Do you know which seat base your using? Would you recommend it?[/list] I was thinking along the lines of what you have, with a livewell/bench in the back, and box storage under the two front seats. Looking at yours makes me think I want to have the passenger seat removable. [/QUOTE]
