I've seen some well drafted comments here with none of the information correct. 1st of all, hitch was not too high behind the deisel pusher unless I don't know something and now the intended tongue placement is to have trailer ride uneven. I thought it was a high spot too but on level ground it...

They did confirm it's the 10,625 model according to the VIN. I will follow up with the tongue weight as it sits currently when I have it and let everyone know. I don't think it's too far forward personally because the tongue isn't that heavy. My empty dump trailer has more tongue weight from the...

Before the damage the boat trailer was level. There's been a lot of bashing me about being way too high which is not able to be told from the damaged photo.

Yes I'm bashing them because they assured me it was correct before I took off with it. As for ball height, Do you think it's supposed to be trailered with the front of the trailer low. I'm no boat trailer expert but I'm smart enough to know to tow it level which is where it was. It is actually...

I can handle it. Been over this and according to Daves Trailer sales this is an adequate trailer for the boat but they claimed the previous owner waived having them adjust the trailer for the boat. I did stop into their establishment spent money on spare parts and asked if there was anything I...

It's a Vantage Trailer, I misted Venture and have changed it 3 times now. Hopefully it sticks this time. I haven't been in contact with them yet as I was hoping the dealer would give me contact info for them. The weight of the boat doesn't ride on the bow stand but when you hit bumps on the road...

If you're looking to buy a new trailer for your boat beware of Dave's Trailer Sales in Glen Burnie, MD. They sold the previous owner of my boat an aluminum triple axle trailer specifically for my 282 Sailfish just over 2 years ago. I bought the boat and trailer last August and towed it back to...

If you decide to put the rocket launcher mount in front of your engines raise the engines all the way up first and measure how close they get and be sure you can clear them. I have an ugly scratch on top of my starboard engine cowl because I didn't know they didn't clear and was raising to flip...

Definitely more to look into. Thanks for the info. Time to get ready to go elk hunting so this may get back burnered for a bit.

No shudder when turning. As for the grease in the bushing I haven't looked there but that will be on my list of investigative ideas. Thanks for the ideas, I will check that next.
