Car Boat Trailer

First I had brake and tail lights. Then the fuse blew on my car tail lights while trying to get blinkers going. Replaced fuse on car tail lights and now I have only tail lights on trailer after about 10 hours of searching for the problem. Have replaced both the connectors on car and boat trailer to no avail. All lights on the car work properly. 2003 Honda Element.

I would check the wiring from the taillight switch to the connection on your vehicle. The fuse might have blown for a reason meaning somewhere in you wiring harness you may have a short. I would do a voltage test on the wiring, starting from the vehicles trailer electrical connector back to the battery. Find a wiring diagram and grab a multi meter or test light.

Best of Luck

There is an apartment building nearby that has a broken car and an old boat with trailer in the garage sitting for the last 18 years. The owner left it and never came back, and is long, long gone, never to return. The landlord is now selling the building and needs to get this stuff out of there. He doesn't have the registration, title papers, or anything, but says I can have the car, boat, and trailer for free if I move them out. Do I just register them in my name? Do you think these things are still "in the system?" Thanks in advance!

You'll have to file for an abandoned title & then I think you can put the items in your name, so long as there's not a lien against them. You'll have to check with the laws in your state though.

Pre-drilled holes for easy mounting (mounting hardware not included)
Heavy-gauge steel construction with corrosion-resistant zinc finish
Pulling power with the convenience of easy-turn geared winch

A car is towing a boat on a trailer. The driver starts from rest and accelerates to a velocity of +11 m/s in a time of 28 s. The combined mass of the boat and trailer is 410 kg. The frictional force acting on the trailer can be ignored. What is the tension in the hitch that connects the trailer to the car.

The force we are looking for accelerates tralier with boat to 11m/s in 28 seconds. Using the second law of Newton we get F = ma, where a = 11/28 m/s^2 and m = 410, so F = 410*11/28 N

Price: $110.36 $56.99

Attaches to ball mount or a flat surface with plate
Capacities: 2000-pound pulling, 5000-pound marine, 6,000-pound rolling
12-volt portable winch with remote and hand crank

I was wondering have a boat trailer axle will that be good to put 13 inch or 14 inch car tires on?

Sure. Just remember that a 185/75/14 car tire does not have the same weight capacity as the same size trailer tire. But, if you do not plan on carrying heavy loads, then the auto tire would be fine.

If you are still using this trailer for your boat, then you need to stick with a trailer tire. Trailer tires are built with more ply's allowing better weight capacity and stronger side walls. Stronger side walls are very important when hitting curbs or using un-improved ramps that are poorly maintained.

have truck.new F-350 with fith-wheel

call your closest "hot shotter' company or look at doing escort service. ( I would only do that in a diesel with a grease "pit" installed)
