    winter projects? What you got?

    February is when I try to service my trailer. Grease the bearings or replace if they are growling. Check the lights & replace any carpet on bunks that’s worn. I usually try to go through my reels and clean & grease if needed, tie some pompano & Spanish rigs. Our season usually starts mid...

    Torsion bar axle?

    Point taken Spare. I’ve had a torsion trailer for over 25 years, on my fourth set of axels. Get about 6-8 years out of a set. No brakes on mine and I DO wash them every time. Doesn’t seem to help.

    I'm awful tempted to go look at this one

    Looks good, like the color. What OB is that? Running off of a portable tank usually means tank issues,but maybe not.

    Torsion bar axle?

    The hub is the part that the tire and rim bolts to, it is replaceable. Some models have a replaceable axle, the part the hub slides on. The drop arm and bands are not serviceable.

    SNOW in Florida!!!!

    i used to have natural gas heat, loved it. Cheap and very warm. Switched to all electric heat pump bout 20 years ago. Great AC , lousy heat source when it drops below 30* Last time we had snow was Dec. ‘89. Agree with u Pipe, power outage would be bad.
