Frankly, I am far more obsessive about my trailer brakes. I carry a two gallon garden sprayer with me, and rinse off the trailer's disc brakes after I launch the boat and park the vehicle and trailer. Bulbs are cheap; brakes are not. But that's because you are awesome. The newbie with the lights question just isn't in your league. Eisboch Jumping into the mud wrestling attraction? Don't present yourself as the angel of rec.boats in the future. Eh? You should call Harry and commiserate with him over his pustule problem. He's having to squeeze them daily. Must be atrocious with all that foul smelling stuff coming out. Give him a call. Not just an email. Grow up John. Did you read about the idiot who hadn't the brain power to google up manufacturers/suppliers of LED trailer lights, and then discovered his trailer already had LED trailer lights? D'oh. Unbelievable! Is this the first boat this character has ever owned? He shouldn't be allowed off the dock without supervision.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Really? What kind of brake pads are on your wifes car? Why... you in the brake repair business now? Right, you'd never notice whether you had regular incandescent or LED lights on the back of your trailer because...well...because they look the same when lit, right? :) Of course, if you don't check your trailer lights when you hitch up before you drive off...well...- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I bet I am the only one here who drives everyone crazy with a walk around.. No matter how recently I strapped down the gear, or even if I just stopped for gas, rain, snow, shine.. etc, if I were superstitious, I would say this was like a good luck charm. I sit in the drivers seat (both feet don't need to be in the vehicle ![]() start the engine. Then I exit the vehicle and do a complete 360 walk around checking the hitch, tires, straps, load, even around the front of the truck looking for fluid, etc... I do this every time I start the truck with a trailer on. If the Mouse is in the front seat, she does the same in the opposite direction.. every time, no excuses.. period.. Even if I just finished locking down the load 15 seconde earlier... |
