Trailer repairs

Hi Guys,

I have a trailer for my 12' dinghy and i forgot to pay the license, hence it is unregistered (more than 3 months). I am going to put new lights on (which I know how to do) and new tyres, but I dont know how to check the bearings, and pack them (or what ever else needs to be done there).

Is there anyone on the forum who knows how to do this and is interested in doing it for me. I am obviously happy to pay someone for their time, I called a couple of businesses that do this, and they were a complete rip off.

If you think you can help, please pm me.

the trailer is in floreat.

 

Thanks

Go the you tube. Martins trailer parts has taken heaps of cash of me lately.

It's good to learn how to do this just in case you need to on the road sometime. They're good for advice too

I learnt the hard way... 150km north of gero one year on the way back from exy.
