Could you tell us more about your upgraded axles and brakes? Where did they come from? How much were they? I am considering this upgrade for my galvanized trailer.

Thanks

I had a local trailer company do the work. Eddie English Trailer Builders, they have been around for 40 yrs. I don't know brand but they are 3500lbs a piece. $480 for the pair plus install. Then add the galv disc brakes onto that. Wasn't cheap. LOL. But rides a lot better and higher now. New galv leaf springs also. Total was $1900 for everything incl labor and the new wheels also.

Great price. you should have it sold soon.
Q1) How much did it cost to recover the seats?
Q2) Did they have the original grey hammered aluminum vinyl?

Blazing, got a family deal w local upholsterer but price is $275 for the 3 bow seat backs I took him. The bow and two in front of helms. He thinks he may have the honeycomb/hammered but knows it isn't made anymore. If he doesn't it's gonna be solid grey vinyl which will be fine. Will pick them up thursday!!

I believe that @JetBoatPilot may have a stock of the hammered.

I looked and there isn't any in the upholstery section. Thanks for the heads up though!

You should call. I bought some of the white vinyl from him last year. He may have it despite not having it listed on the website.

Dang! They are probably already almost done w them. Atleast the new buyer will know if he or she wants to spend the extra $ to have the grey seat backs in front match perfectly they can. Don't think it's a huge deal if it's smooth grey versus the hammered honestly. it will be brand new fabric regardless. If I would have known before I would have bought some from jet boat pilot for sure though! Thanks for the info!
