<p>i pulled out the axle and springs because i was concerned about their condition.i wire wheeled off all the rust.the stuff looked good to me other than pitting.i primed it all with rustoleum rusty metal primer and top coated with rustoleum flat black enamel.i wire brushed the frame in the spring area and primered and painted that too.i put it back together using new grade 8 bolts and nuts.i had replaced and greased the bearings earlier..i also wire wheeled the tounge and hitch and painted them.i hated how dark the trailer is so i added a led 120 volt light where the 12 volt light was.i plan to use a 6 inch heat duct booster as a power vent to vent the trailer so i can keep the origional vent.ive let this thing sit so long the new tires i put on it dry rotted and cracked.</p>
