Re: 1986 ss 201

Great weekend here a little snow and wind today, but nothing like you poor guys out east YIKES. Rob came out and we worked on the Motor home project yesterday, including a 100k test drive, it handles great.
Plus I got the axles set up under the SS trailer. Don't know if I had to many wobbly pops yesterday or what but I couldn't read a tape measure to save my sole this morning, I had to cut the center hanger off twice because I put it in the wrong spot.:noidea: I decieded against the adjustable axle mount, as I would have only had about six inches of movement.

Beer cans make lousy levels. :lol: Hopefully the winch can be moved enough if you need to adjust the tongue weight. Looking good, D.

More trailer progress, all the re-fabing is done till the new fenders get here, should be tomorrow or Thursday. I built a new cross member for the tongue, the old one was a little bent and too high making the boat sit a little high at the bow. So I offset it and the tongue so I can lower the bow approx. 3.5"s.
I also added a cross member at the rear to support the new bunks I will put on instead of the rollers.

I like the four fenders. Much classier and custom looking than having one long fender on each side. Nice, DII.

Thanks Guys, I really like the four fenders as well. I tried the long single fender and it didn't look good at all.
