MYCO Trailer refurbish.

[Scarab KV]

I try to keep the trailer on the shallow side to center it up. Then back it in a little further before pushing it all the way up. A variety of ramps, returning in the dark and occasional impatience test good judgment.

All which comes from Been There Done That experience

I suspect a new strap has been ordered for that winch? Hmmm?

Looking good.

Do you have a paint booth to spray in? That's cool.

Yesterday.

 

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Yes in a booth.

It took nearly 5 hours of spray time to prime the whole thing and double coat with all the inside stuff. You could read a newspaper in part of the main rails that got paint. As I mentioned previously our plan is to tape off the inside and detail prep the new fenders and outside rails. It is gonna be awesome.

Nice.
When would you like mine down there?

Wayne, we have gone way overboard. It is silly how much time we have spent. I don't think either of us will care to do another for a long time.

As my friend Mark says about my projects.
"You never do anything simple, but the end results are great.:smash:

Yep, 8 weeks out. All is well.

New seals and bearings packed. Hubs and drums have been rattle canned. Chances are good I will apply a few more coats when I paint some new brake brackets and bolts.






I have some work to do on boats. I have looked at this trailer enough today. More in a few days.
