Greetings to all. I'm restoring a 14' MonArk Jon boat and trailer that have been sitting for 10 years and have a question about tire sizes. Currently the trailer has 4.8 x 8" tires on 4 lug rims. Since I'm replacing them, should I increase tire size to a 4.8 x 12" on 4 lug rims? I can raise the...
I am in need of a new jon boat trailer. Mine has turned into a headache and I’d rather be fishing that messing around with it. My boat is a 16x 54 flat bottom smoker craft. The trailer the boat is on is between 21 and 22 feet long and 66” between the fenders. Way more trailer than I need. I’m...
Re: Jon boat trailer Build I made a trailer for my 1436 john boat. I bought a $150 Harbor Freight trailer kit (on sale + 20% off coupon) and replaced the tongue with a 20' stick of 2.5 x 2.5 square steel tube. Once I figured out how long I needed the trailer I chopped off the tongue, welded on piece of the left over tongue for a winch post, bolted on a winch and bow stop
Re: Weight of a small Jon boat and trailer? - Can I tow with a 1000 Lbs tow capacity? How to weigh a boat..... 1. First put the scale under the tongue with the boat pulled all the way up on the trailer. For this example, we will use a scale reading of 100lbs so W1=100 2. Scoot the boat back on the trailer EXACTLY 12" so 12=X 3. Re-weigh the tongue.
The boat sits on 2 carpeted bunks 8 foot long with a jon boat carpeted bunk support up near the front of the boat for additional front support. The boat is secured to the trailer with a bow stop & winch hook in the front, 2 straps in the middle of the boat, and 1 transom strap at the rear.

I have a 12 foot aluminum jon boat on a Bear non-tilting trailer. I now have to back the trailer deep into the water to get the boat off the bunks. Will replacing the carpeted bunks with roller bunks work well with the flat bottom on this boat to help with this issue?
Re: Shattering Jon Boat Trailer Light Bulbs buy forgetting 25 times and blowing a $2 bulb = a set of leds. that was my line thinking that made me spend the $50. and for that time i have 5 beers and dont get the dui on the way to the campground due to being stopped for a blown taillight was another thought. i got tired of driving home with 1 light.
I recently purchased a Lowe 1648 with guides installed on the trailer. ..two 90 degree bend 2" square tubing with 46" X 2" PVC slid down onto the tubing. About 16" of the metal tubing goes vertical into the PVC. This arrangement is pretty weak when you are trying to load on a windy day. Has...
