Previously, when the foot of my trailer got stuck in the down position – on the ground and wouldn’t budge, even when cranked up – I got out the WD-40 and sprayed it everywhere. Eventually, the foot would loosen and do what it was supposed to do.
But this year, since the trailer has been sitting a while, it was impossible to move that foot. I did everything I could think of… including asking Hubby to move it. HE could budge it, but I couldn’t.
Not good.
So… the last time the diesel mechanic was here (with his enormous truck), I told him about the stuck trailer foot. He said, “I could fix that…”.
And today, he did!
He cut off the old mechanism and welded on a new mechanism. Just. Like. That.
Needless to say, I was thrilled. My trailer is 23 years old and still in great shape. I want to be able to use it without needing another person to help me. And now I can!
Brian and his big truck. He has EVERYTHING he needs on there, including a welder.
The old, bad, stuck foot.
The brand new foot! I still have to spray paint all of the welds to keep them from rusting.
