Bertha Gets Her Ass Back in Shape

Bertha started getting her ass back in shape just after July 4th. 

Last weekend, several feet of c-channel, two new cross-members, several new outriggers, and a husband who can weld transformed her backside. 

Cross-members and outriggers were purchased from Out of Doors Mart, Greensboro, NC.

FYI - Solids outriggers are sized to fit the double thick sections of frame and hollow outriggers are sized to fit single thickness sections. So yes, contrary to what I was told, it does matter what you buy.

The front end got some love too. 

Above you can see a section of rot removed and a partial patch applied with interior reinforcement. 

Completed patch above! Completely repaired trailer below. 

Next weekend we plan to paint the repairs and start adding the new plywood floor. 

Thanks for looking!
