    Trailer Brakes

    Gang,

    I did something stupid this weekend. I have the 196 in the garage and the tongue folded in. when I went to unfold it I pinched the rubber brake line. Interesting design!!! I put a slit in the line. So looking at it I thought splice it. Ran to the Lowes picked up a compression fitting and a splicer and 2 clamps. compression did work right and the splicer was to large for the rubber tubing. So I thought, 40K boat, 3.00 hardware part for the BRAKES, that combination didn't sound right (sarcasm)...

    Here is the question. There are 2 SMALL access point under the trailer, I can't get to either to get a set of wrenches on. I disconnected the line in the back thinking I could pull it through some where it would be centered more to the access points, didn't work.

    Any suggestions? Hard to snap pics, but can try. Luck the boat/trailer isn't overly heavy, so the Armada will still be able to pull and stop it. Might have to take it to the shop.

      Call these guys and buy a new brake line. I 'm pretty sure they use UFP products.

      They helped my brake conversion. The engineers can pretty well tell you what the part number is by the trailer manufacturer, these guys know their products well.

        Shoot some pics out there of the access point, as well as what you damaged if you would. Is Nautique your trailer manufacturer, or is it another maker?
