I’m not quite sure how many trailers I’ve had over the years, from boats, to cargo, to utility, but I know this….not many things can be more aggravating to deal with than than a dad-blamed trailer! Great video Wiley!
Couldn't have said it better myself!! They can sure be a pain! Thanks Ya'll 😊
That trailer will be everything when its time to move for sure.
For sure!! Thanks Cyndi 😊
Thanks Dj 😊
Wiley watching you makes it look easy but I know it’s not unless you know what you are doing. Your another one of those guys that knows how to do a lot. Good for you. Thanks for sharing. Take care. See you on the live✌️🇺🇸
Thank you Charlene 😊 I guess that school of hard knocks my dad put me through paid off in the long run!! 🤣
Great job, Wiley. You reminded me of my Dad he could fix almost everything.
I take that as a very big compliment!! Thank you Pat 😊

Thanks 😊
Dang Wiley I thought my luck was bad when came to my vechiles but honestly l. believe your luck is worse than mine ..But your always fixing it sometimes better than before ...I know you'll get going again one way or the other
Lol yeah!! The main reason it's has so many issues is because it sat for a good number of years. Sitting is VERY hard on cars. Thanks Patty 😊
Hi Jenn & Wiley. Fyi. 20 hours after this video was posted, I received notification 😣🤷🏻♀️.
I just confirmed that I was not unsubscribed. I just never got the YT notification until a few minutes ago.
Well that's weird! Thanks for letting us know Tracy 😊
Love IT more Please.
👍🏻👌🏻❤️🙏🏻
Great job
Thank you Sheila 😊
Awesome video. That's a Sweet Heavy Duty 💪🏻 Trailer👍🏻.
If you have a Local sewer co, they may have an abundance of pre-cut oak planking for the taking.
Wiley , I to have seen hundreds if not more, trailers of all sorts broken down on the roadside. Some just hook em up, load em to the gills and hope for the best😬 but often find themselves in a pickle on the roadside.
You set a fine example of what To Do and you shared a wealth of knowledge to other trailer owners.
Take care, have a good day. I will see you guys on the next one.
God Bless your family.
For sure! Probably the most neglected item on the road!!

Great job guys
Thanks Shawn 😊

You're right about buying the bolts in bulk. I got to a fastner company in Valley Brook, OK. They every bolt you can think of there as well rivets and any fastner you can think of. They are going straight to the wholesaler. Also, I've got a can of bolts I saved form pulling seats on the busses. 3 different sizes with nuts, and the seat belts use biggo bolts, like 7/16 or so so I saved them too. Have the kids safe them bolts. They'll come in handy someday.
We sure saved them all! Thanks 😊
@@WorkinWithWiley And those sizes will come in handly. They'll get used cuz they are common sizes.
Get him Jen. What is Working with Wiley if you don't film the work. How can we learn anything? Enjoyed the lesson.
😂🤣😂well if she would just help!! Thank you Eunice 😊
Wiley good stuff man you made all that look easy Now you wanna do mine lmao yea once that floor is replaced that trailer gonna be ready to haul what ever you wanna stack on it keep up the great work..
Thank ya man!!
Great video... But if you don't start remembering to record stuff, I'm gonna do more than just roll my eyes at you! 😜
😝😝😝
Listen to the Boss💪🏻😆
Trailer maintenance is important and people don't think about it and don't do it. Not only brakes and suspendion but WHEEL BEARINGS !!! I've towed so many trailers on a rollback due to bad bearings that only went bad because people don't pack the bearings every so often. I repack my trailer bearings about every 3-5 years depending on how much I used the trailer and check the brakes at that time. If it needs brakes, I find it's just about as cheap to just buy a whole net brake kit with backing plate, magnets, drum, pads and all. Most axles are industry standard Dexter brand. But yeah, your bad bearings can tear up your axle spindle to the point you have to have new axle put in and the last guy I know that had a tandem axle landscape trailer with a bearing that went bad, cost him $500 to have a new axle installed since it couldn't be saved. Of course I reminded him, now, pack the bearings on the other axle too since it's likely in the same condition as the others were. Sure enough, the bearings were dry and actually burnt, so to save the axle I suggested replace those bearings NOW. Even packing them at this point is nothing more than a short lived band aid, so replace the bearings, pack them good and you're good for another 3 years since you use this trailer quite often during lawn cutting season. Yep, you did it right and bought complete brake kits too. Great Job !!!
And it was like $100 per axle super cheap!! Thanks man
@@WorkinWithWiley Yep, just like I said. Cheaper to buy the whole axle kit than to replace just the pads and now you KNOW it all new and functional and most of all, SAFE.
Do some research, but DOT may request red and white reflector tape
I do have 2 rolls I am fighting with the idea of painting first!
Had to chuckle, brother treat water sealed his flat bed, neighbor wanted to know how he got creosote, "make my own", so neighbor went home and proceeded to do his own, he got it on thick enough the children playing on it smudged up their clothes, and mama wasn't too happy, basically it's used diesel motor oil thinned with diesel, got a hunch gasoline oil may not have been quite so black. You all get to Arkansas you'll want to consider a combination used oil/wood heat for your shop
Bahahaha yup that mixture will get pretty messy! I am actually researching building my own waiste oil heater!
Hi Wiley what about a license plate light 💡
Oklahoma does not require licensing on personal trailers. Only commercial. It will be a different story once we become permanent Arkansas residents I assume. The light is built into the left brake light but won't be used yet lol
🇳🇴👍👍👌🥇
Thanks Morten 😊
i love that air jack. two of my lifts have air back jacks on them but to be mobile is great. its ok Wiley , I dont record a fraction of what I do. I want too, but I forget because Im to busy trying to get projects done. I understand. Do you have side clearance amber lights bought yet? I have a bunch of new led ones and dont mind sending you 6 or so if you still need some free.
Yeah that air jack is awesome!! I actually do have 8 of those 3/4 button lights. I just gotta find a good enough 3/4 drill bit! Lol Thanks Ya'll 😊
@@WorkinWithWiley ok the ones I have are like the old style double bulb probably 3-4 in long and 1.5-2 in tall but are led
Yeah that's what's on it they can be such a pain!! I bought a pack of 20 of these little round ones I love these! It was only like $15 for the pack. I want to put the rest on my truck LOL
@@WorkinWithWiley heck yeah
I love watch u too
Thank you Patty 😊
Hey guys, did you get the video I sent you to your e-mail ?
Yes we did!! That's something we will definitely use!! Thank you Larry 😊
@@WorkinWithWiley Always glad to help when I can, wherever I can. Have a good one 😊.
