Hi Jeff, I’m glad you’re tackling those cracked slides now because that buckling at the ramp hinge is exactly what can catch carbides and make loading more stressful than it needs to be. With two sleds side by side, having solid, smooth guides makes…
Hey Dylan - both M-3 plates measure 81-3/4 inches wide, so you'd need to trim off a little bit. The aluminum one #M348FR would be easier to trim, so I'd pick that over the steel one. The hinge runs the full width so you’ll still get solid…
Hey Dave, for a saltwater boat trailer, powder-coated wheels wouldn't be my first choice, but they can still last quite a while if you're good about rinsing them thoroughly after each launch and sealing any chips or cracks in the finish as…
Hey Brock! I reached out to Caliber and they said the Caliber Edge Glide 2.0 Transition Plate for Enclosed Trailers #CA62TJ does not have a weight capacity. The material will bend before breaking. They also said these work great on car haulers so you…
The Dexter 31549 axle on your snowmobile trailer is a 3,500 lb torsion axle. Although we do not carry torsion axles, you can use the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension #ASR3500S05. This is very similar to your current axle with each side working…
It sounds like you are looking for an adapter like the Pollak 7-Way to 12V Power Outlet #PK11896. This will plug into a 7-Way on the vehicle and provide a 12V plug on the other end that can be used with 12V accessories. In order to then convert this…
Hey Bill, yes you can use the Caliber Edge Glide 2.0 Transition Plate for Enclosed Trailers #CA42TJ on a plywood ramp extension. Do you have snowmobiles?
Good question, Tina - you’re in the safe zone with the M-3 aluminum plate #M348FR. It’s 3/16 inch thick and fully welded across the piano hinge (some cheaper ones are just bolted instead of welded), so even with heavy mowers or small tractors, it…
The two sizes you mentioned are pretty similar and fit many of the same 15 inch wheels. The 205/75-15 fits rim widths of 5 inch to 6 inch whereas the 225/75-15 fits widths that are 5 inch to 6-1/2 inch. The 205 is 27.1 inches tall and the 225 is 28.4…
Hey Steve, thanks for the pictures. That's normal. The Dexter vault hubs popping out slightly like that shows the system is pressurized. It'll pop out all the way if there's a leak or a problem. I would check the other one though. It…
Hey Marty. Caliber lists the weight capacity for their Edge Glide XL Transition Plates item #CA47EJ as matching your trailer's ramp door. So whatever your ramp door capacity is is what transition plates will sport. The 4-pack has a combined…
To replace the hubs on your trailer, I will need you to pull one of your hubs and look for the inner and outer bearing. On the face of each of these bearings, there is a number. That number will help me get you the correct hubs for your trailer. If…
In these days of customer "no service" I am usually disapointed when doing business with people I don't know. It was refreshing doing business with you. I'm impressed!
