As you can tell, trailer is a but rough. It's an auction so what do you expect.
Concrete
We had concrete in the ramp holders and the passenger side holder was bent.
Ramp Holder
Bent with just a touch of concrete.
Cleaned
Got all the concrete out
Cleaned and straightened
All ready to go now
Probably need to replace
All the shackles, bushings and bolts were replaced. Wonder how long those would have lasted before we had a breakdown on the road.
Fenders
Fenders on both side of the trailer were in rough shape
Fenders
Fenders on both side of the trailer were in rough shape. Notice the inside panel protecting the tires from the inside.
Wiring
The wiring was in need of some help. Yes, that green wire, it is an extension cord. Ran front to back . Had some great electrical tape repair work though.
More Fine Wiring
It could be worse.

REBUILD
Ramps
Trailer came with no ramps so I built some. I mean why not the ramp holders have no more concrete and are straight now.
Fenders
Thought we would add some new fenders. Got these from Northern Tool.
Fenders and Tires
Got some new meats (as the Roadkill guys like to say).Got them from T&W Tire on Jacksboro Highway. Great service BTW !!!! Also put on new lug nuts. This time they all match. If I broke down with the old one and not had a 4 way I'd been pissed. There were 3 different sized lug nuts on here.
Inside Wheel protector
Got some 14 gauge steel to protect the tires
Spare Tire Mount
Also added a spare tire mount. Have the tire and wheel but have not gone up to T&W Tire to have them mounted yet.
Electrical
Added a center brake light.
Electrical
New side brake lights
Electrical
Added two side markers per side
