[QUOTE="milli, post: 412031, member: 20997"] I was rereading your post and I might just end up doing this. I might take it slow and do sections at a time. Thinking I might focus on just the front half first. I did move the winch bracket forward 4 inches so that the boat doesn't hang off the end of the trailer so much. I'm thinking this will make it track better without having so much weight behind the rear axle. I feel that it should still be another 4 inches more forward but it was all I could do without removing the trailer bracket that is welding in place. I would really like to get the boat off and replace the two front rollers as they are ripped and rotted and it can't be good for the boat to be sitting on them like that. I will post up some pics later today. Thank you everyone for showing interest. It really makes you want to keep coming back to post! On a side note the Carb I got off of EBAY comes today so that means I get to fire it up!!!! Might even replace the water pump/impeller today or tomorrow so I can get it in the lake and see how she does. [/QUOTE]
