    Thank you for the video... I'm having a similar issue with our trailer jack and your video was helpful for us prior to working on it. We appreciate your efforts!

    Great video! Besides the half million times i heard BASICALLY.😂 So "basically", you make it as simple as possible to understand. THX for this! I basically looked at several of these videos bc I pick up a jack from my grandmother's bc the one I had on my 16' trailer basically locked up on me, and she had this one laying around. It definitely needed to be takin apart and cleaned up as its been laying around for years. You made it look easy enough so "basically"😂thx for the tutorial.💯👌💯 lol, just yankin ur chain bud. 😅😅😅 GOOD JOB

    Thanks so much for the detailed video
    The pin broke on the crank arm. So we couldn’t go fishing today but at least it’s a pretty easy fix
    Heading to the hardware store to get a new pin and hopefully be able to get out fishing in the morning

    Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for. I am on my third set of wheels and didn’t know why the shaft kept freezing even when I was lubricating the external shaft.

      Judge Judy wouldn't allow "basically". Still a great video. I usually have to buy a new jack every 2 years. But now will try rebuilding it after watching this

    Thanks for the proper method. Now that I see how this works I am just going to open the cap, extend the wheel and pack a bunch of grease down without disassembly. This is not the Alaska flight 261 MD-80 type of problem I need to solve.

    • @topgunbass

    A few comments on this. Don't use a punch like the one he is using, it will deform your roll pin in the event you want to try and re-use it (say you're not in a location where you can easily replace the roll pin). Use non-tapered one, like a Dasco. And don't use vice grips, you'll deform or break the roll pin. You can get the whole pin out if you do it an an angle. Also, once you get the whole thing greased up, stay within your range you were able to manually spin in and out, no need to push it all the way out -- it may get stuck.

    What is the name of the swivel clamp you used to attach the wheel to the trailer and where can I get it?

    • @topgunbass
      @topgunbass  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's a boat trailer jack. The swivel already comes attached to the unit if you buy one. You just clamp it on to the trailer with U bolts that fit the frame.

      @@topgunbass But keep in mind that they are not intended for moving the loaded trailer around on soft ground. They do not steer well in those situations and will easily collapse if over-stressed!

    I love fixing things but these jacks are relatively cheap. It's the one item I simply replace when they freeze up.

    • @topgunbass
      @topgunbass  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ya they are pretty cheap. I guess if you've had it a long time you can just buy new.

    Must be a crowd of Americans watching this: "Don't buy something well constructed and care for it so it lasts a long time. Better to buy things that are cheap and crappy and just keep spending money to replace them when they fail from lack of care!!!" 🙄
    What is it with these people and "basically"? If it's not "it was like" it's "basically". What the heck is the purpose of that word in your narration???
