Landing Gear Saga Continues
We have successfully made it to Jasper National Park and have hitched and unhitched the trailer three times. However, the clunking sound game back. I found that the shear pin on the motor side had snap and worked its way out to where it was hitting the motor at each revolution.
I don’t if the gear problem caused the shear pin to snap or if the snapped shear pin caused the gear problem. I also don’t know when the shear pin snapped as we have heard the clunk sound before but it has been inconsistent.
Orv, I have reduced the amount of air in the hitch. In rereading the instructions that came with the hitch I have had the white line too high.
A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU to whomever was passing out shear pins at Quartzsite back in January. I have no idea where I would go to find a replacement near Jasper Alberta.
