Re: Im missing something and its more important than my marbles.

The coupler and lever on my 1988 30P are quite a bit different than yours. Mine also has a 1/4" through-hole for a clevis pin. Have you considered removing the lever to see if you can drill a through-hole in something solid under the lever? SIlver- I've thought of maybe drilling a hole just to...

Im missing something and its more important than my marbles.

So I recently happened upon a video on facebook about a trailer and naturally, I watched it. It was about hitch pin safety and how several people have died from trailers coming disconnected to their tow vehicle.

Re: 1967 Avion 24' Holiday Restoration Thread

Finally scored a trailer cover for the H24. Bought it from ebay for under $200. Not expecting greatness for that price but we shall see how it holds up long term. Since Avion is a lesser known trailer, I searched for the airstream 24' cover, found this, and took a chance. What do you know, the cover...

Did you use treated plywood for your floor, and if so, what sort of barrier did you put down between the treated flooring and the frame?

Looking for a vintage Power Jac or similar
