Old School Race Trailer

We'll, I found one.  I knew in the back of my mind I would need a trailer sooner or later.  I purchased  this about 3 weeks ago in Pennsylvania.  It was custom made for a race car, that's why it has the large storage box and a winch.  I towed it back with the pickup truck and tows real nice.  More about this in later blogs.

Making progress

Yes, making progress.  The nuts I ordered arrived and now both left and right shafts are completed.  So now all the damage from 2 years ago at Laguna Seca is repaired.

Working on the right half shaft

Right side is ready.  Now I'm just waiting for the nuts.

Working on the left half shaft

New donuts look good and fit right.

Needed a reference photo from 2009.  Just to make sure
all the parts are in the right place.

Unfortunately I forget to order more nuts to complete the job.
They will be here next week.

Right Bolts

At last, the right bolts.  Now I can reassemble the axle shafts.

The one on the right is new.

This needed more threads, shorter and the head of the bolt
had to be turned on the lath to make smaller.
