Wow. This is a great idea! Brilliant!! I will try this on the Scout trailer. Thank you
Thank you my brother! This will hopefully last a long time!
Great Information Video! Everyone with a trailed boat goes through this problem, this will definitely help make it last a long long time. Thanks! Peace from the Keys!
Its definitely something that plagues all of who trailer boats. Thank you for the comment brother!
That is a nice trick!! I will try it on my next set of lights, thanks for sharing!
Thanks Juan! It’ll definitely help give it some more life! 🤙
Fasten the lights to the bracket with nylon wingnuts. They will not corrode And you can remove them before you put the trailer in the water. Move the lights to higher ground, Like up by the trailer hitch.
Then when you come out of the water simply reattach the lights with the nylon wing nuts
Great idea! 🤙
Good video cap. And my trailer always have some problems especially the break system
Thanks for the comment cap! You know, you’d think someone would come up with something that is strong enough to last in the saltwater environment. Some type of spray coating that repels water off the metal parts of the trailer. Might be up to innovators like yourself to invent something, cap! 😉
@@perfectfitboating lol im running to my mad lab 🏃♂️🤯
@OutOnTheReef 🤣🤣🤣
Haha!!! I did the same thing to my trailer lights brother. I also added removable lights, with a two wire connector extention, that I can hook on the transom tie down eyes. So there's a total of four lights between the trailer and the boat.
Smart! I think I might do something like that as well! I hate having to change these all the time is more of an annoyance than anything else! Good idea!🤙
@perfectfitboating Trying figure out a way to send you a photo of my hanging lights and connectors..
@aeroscout8409 send it to our email in our about us page 👍
Sent you an email with transom light pics. I'm also bought to spot weld some holes in an added bimini bow. @@perfectfitboating
from where did you get your heavy-duty trailer coiled wire adapter??
Harbor freight I believe
buenísimo mi amigo, hay que buscar la economía que todo esta bien caro, saludos
Así mismo bro que la cosa está de madre. Y todo lo que es de barco es el triple de lo normal! 🤙
Watched the whole video just to see how you spliced the side light into the regular wire. Anyone help would be appreciated!
Looks like it's worth a try. The only problem would be is to replace a bulb if it burns out. Corrosion is usually what causes the problems so pick your poison as they say.
I believe those are surface mount LEDs in the housing so they aren’t replaceable.
I just had to use a dremal to cut those damn bolts off my trailer.
Been there. It suck’s.
I got to stop watching TH-cam videos and get to work lol. Awwwwh shit.
Use lots of silicone on the bolts and nuts, just be sure the ground still connects, then slather the shit all over it… Or continually wash it every time you stick it in and lube it 🆙👍🏻
Rinse and scrub the trailer with fresh water every use after dipping in saltwater. Make sure to pull the bearings apart and grease them occasionally so the wheels don’t just all of a sudden outrun you going down the highway.
Inspect those axles 😂 AND springs…………….
Get to work! 🤣
Thanks for the tips and thanks for watching! I realized quick how much work these boats are! 🤣
@@perfectfitboating I’ve got a 16 foot wide transom that I have to do that too pretty soon. I have to remove two rudders, a dinghy platform, and outboard motor bracket that I no longer need. I bet those 6’ long stainless rudders weigh a ton or more each? I think I’d rather have a guy who’s done it before do it, though? What do you think 40 gallons? How much is that gonna cost holy crap
@@daha7864 bigger the boat the bigger your wallet will have to be. 16’ transom is wild and I don’t think I’d touch that. Not before doing some research first. Might be more than 40 gallons! 😳
When the cops pull you over for a bad trailer light, I usually find it's an intermittent ground going to sh!t. I use the same kit and heat shrink connectors, but add a separate wire for the grounds and eliminate the chassis grounding. I feel trailer lighting kits should come this way, opening up 5 grounding failing points to save one wire, doesn't make sense. PS no offense, but the wife's electrical videos are more entertaining.
I agree and I might just do that to eliminate the grounding wire to chassis. It’s probably some DOT requirement.
No offense taken, id rather watch her than see my mug on the screen too 🤣🤙
👍🏼🙌🏼
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
You went through the trouble of retiring the trailer and you didn’t use sealed trailer wire.
Not really Trouble it’s pretty standard actually. Just like the wire I used. Cheap and easy fix.
All this might work, but I'm starting to think mounting them up higher so they never go underwater might be the best choice.
I think that’s the best choice too. Just gotta find a decently priced set that can go on the guide poles.🤙
