Got my fully tinned wire for my trailer and put it on so now I have
trailer lights again. However while doing it, I found that all of the
bolts and nuts on the trailer are so badly corroded they will not last
another season. I probably need about $100 of stainless hardware to
replace them. I thought EZ Loader was quality but it isn't. What
would a bit of stainless or hot dipped galv bolts have cost them?

Go to a real fastener place and you might save a few bucks but
stainless is the way to go on a salt water trailer. I started out a
couple bolts at a time as they got nasty but I bit that bullet too
after a few rounds of swapping out rusted bolts.


You can probably buy a box of 100 for the same price as 20 or 30 bought
loose.


That was what I was getting at.


You might want to consider not replying to someone who's so juvi they
have to spoof other people.
