We're already had problems on our little road trip. Anyone know of a good trailer repair facility? We need a hub for the axle, bearings and perhaps a spindle. Jeff changed the bearings before we left, but suspects they were the wrong ones. I found a u-haul place on S. Valley View Blvd, but we were wondering if there was anywhere closer than that. We're currently in a parking lot at the Luxor. Hopefully he can get it taken care of before it gets too hot tomorrow.
Feel free to give me a ringy dingy if anyone knows of a good place. The trailer is just a little thing (4x6).

Jeff's getting ready to put the wheel back on. His baja trips have taught him how to be like McGyver. Hopefully we will be able to hobble it over to the "A-1 trailer and hitch" and camp in their parking lot for the night. :jawdrop:
What the heck are you doing up this time of the morning? :D

Sorry to hear Angie. If Jeff is going to do the work himself, Trailer Tech on Valley View (5495 S. Valley View) is very close. If you come out of the Luxor onto Las Vegas Blvd, go South (out of town) and the first major street is Russell...take that West over the I-15 to Valley View, which is about 1/2 mile.
Turn right and they are the purple building on your left, at the second street. They carry LOTS of parts, but don't do the work. If you guys need someone to do the work, I hear A-1 is good, but never used them myself.
Trailer Tech is: (702) 736-6612
Good luck!

This is the place to go to. I brought them the dimensions of my quad and they built a trailer to specifically fit it. They have helped me with all my trailer needs.

LOL That little gem is all that was saving the wheel from coming off.:D
I made a new one out of the handle of a fitting brush I found near a trash pile in the parking lot, thank God construction workers leave a mess laying around.:)
