Thank you for not just talking the whole video. Your work speaks for itself, no need for filler like other channels. Keep it up.

Nice refurbish I like the look of the wider boards on the outside, I used old motor oil to stain mine worked well plus free, if you use diesel oil it gives it a nice dark stain finish

Great work man! You killed it with that restoration. Trailer looks awesome. Can’t wait to see it hauling stuff around. Nice single cab GMC pickup btw!

There's two different wiring color diagrams for RV 7 pin and trailer 7 pin. It's a screwed up system and a piss off every time you try and color match. There's no standard, some RVs use trailer color code and some trailers use RV color code.

I ran into this while adding a junction box to my car trailer, its pretty common to happen

I did not know that thanks I’ll try and remember that if I ever come across that in the future
@mikemccrea19353 ай бұрын
Those junction boxes are designed for seven round. Typically semi trailers with AirBrakes are the only things that use that. That’s why the colors don’t match the functions that are labeled in those boxes.

Great work man, excited to join in on the channel early and see you grow. Trailer looks fantastic! My only advice would be to slow down your time lapses just a tad and mix in some more talking points during those like “Okay we’re about to paint … time lapse … okay painting is going well etc… time lapse.. I think that would help a lot. Good work man!

@eugenereeceiii27013 ай бұрын
Looks great, only thing id change is the safety chain quick links. They have a very low weight rating (probably 3500# or less each) and wont safely control the trailer if loaded to the trailer limit in an emergency. A shackle in that position would handle a much larger load. Otherwise great looking trailer and nice video.

Nice job, only thing I noticed is those connecting links you used on the safety chains are not rated for high loads, I would replace them with something stronger.
@tylerclark58383 ай бұрын
Just came here to say this. Those links are not rated for what the chain is and d.o.t. can put you out of service for that

We have gone to running carriage bolts through the decking next to the frame member and using a hd fender washer to grab the lip of the frame...no frame drilling required and you can use an impact.

a shallow socket and a right angle attachment or the bendy snake attachment on your 12v impact will spin those nuts in the c channel
@joedoakes83073 ай бұрын
There is a kit that is available powered by a 12 volt dc motor that will wind your jack up and down and is relatively easy to mount ! CT3 added one to his equipment trailer and was pleased with it's operation !

Every new trailer even the powder coated ones are rusty after a year. Thats our luck. When we repaint i have the best luck with a paint brush. Looks like crap but lasts longer. After awhile the brush strokes disappear
@blakeayo94853 ай бұрын
Probably be a lot of work but you could weld nuts to bold deck too

I would adjust the hitches for a slight positive rake when empty so when it's loaded it'll level out. That's just me

This does not help you since you have fixed the wiring. But there is a difference between trailer wring and RV wiring. A lot of those junction boxes are wired RV style...
