Location: Athens, Ohio | I got two new tires on the Gambler's boat trailer yesterday, along with some (more) bad news. You might remember a couple months ago, Mauser and I went fishing and had a deer run into the boat and trailer. This collision knocked the fender off the mounting bolts, and since we didn't re-attach it well, it came off on the way back home and beat the crap outta one tire.
Now, I find out that it also bent the axle right at the wheel. You can see it, it is toed out at the 1-3 o'clock position. Soooooooo, the boat is now at a frame repair shop, the guy there is also a dealer for the brand of axle I have. If he can't straighten it out, he'll replace it.
Anyone had a bent axle fixed properly, or is replacement always the best option?
Before I left my boat in his lot, I swear I heard it wimper, "Take me fishing!" m | |
