I dont' know anything about the Michigan that you're speaking of, but
boat trailers are fairly simple. If the steel isn't rotted out, most
components can be had rather simply, or a welding or machine shop can
make things like replacing rails or fabricating struts etc. rollers
can be had at a marine repair or ebay.

What seems to be the problem with it?
