Thanks Don; I have a couple more things to do yet then I'll start loading it up.
Wow fixing that thing was just like work, Man are my hands sore from drilling.
It has 13 boards 2 X 6 X 16, 7 support beams or 7 bolts in each board.
Thats 91 zink plated bolt's nuts Locking and flat washers.
I rolled on the Thompsons water sealer this afternoon, that stuff stinks
but it does a good job.
Plus I installed the hub caps that you can grease with zirks in them.
Then I geased them till the grease came out this little pin hole in the new cap.
Tomorrow I've got to weld me up a spare tire holder on the passenger side of the trailer.
Then I'll be ready for the road.

You probably already know this, but every time you stop for gas feel the trailer hubs to make sure they are cool. It might be a good idea to carry one extra hub assembly or at least one set of wheel bearings too. Being an old trucker, you probably do more than that though.
