    trouble getting reverse.

    Just realized you have an Alpha drive. DO NOT run engine when boat is out of water and the drive attached, using this flush adapter. If drive is attached, you MUST have water running thru the drive (in water or on muffs) when engine is running or you will burn up the raw water pump that is in...

    I'm confused. From the pictures, it does not look like switches are wired exactly the same.

    Question about tying in a new trim/tilt switch

    If you supply a picture of the old switch, maybe it can be matched up. Give them a call. Switch may be one of the universal ones on Amazon (who also sells the Vivor control). Here is the vendors website link for that control...

    Should I be worried

    That trailer is too small for that boat. Not a fan of the bunks overhanging end of trailer like that. Many aluminum trailers are like that and think it is basically a cost saving move. 2x6 is cheaper than aluminum. Prefer having the trailer frame and supports under the end of the bunk /...

    trouble getting reverse.

    That red hose is home brew rig for flushing the engine / cooling system or running engine while boat is out of the water.. Has nothing to do with the clear box. Look closely at the plastic box and you can see a Rule Pump (red cover) through the semi clear top. That is the grey water pump...

    Best carpet for trailer bunks

    I bet any outdoor carpet would work. Bought 16" wide rolls at Home Depot (was super cheap) when I did new bunks. Lasted years.

    How to bleed trailer brakes

    On last tandem trailer, bought a new fill cap for the actuator. Drilled an tapped a 1/4" NPT hole in top of the old one and added a hose that I connected to a 1 gallon garden sprayer with DOT 3 brake fluid in it and pumped up sprayer a bit. Bled brake calipers till I saw clean fluid. Done in 20...

    I/O taking on water while sitting not moving

    Agree with Scott. Looks like a rubber cap with a clamp on it that has aged and split right at the top. Take it off and try to match it up at the hardware or auto parts store.. If you can't find a match, maybe even put a short section of hose on with a plug in it. Might be the cheapest fix you...

    How to bleed trailer brakes

    Manuals can be found on the internet easily. Just need the trailer coupler make and model. That is usually stamped on the coupler itself or the coupler housing.

    2010 Ford E250 Weight Towing Question

    You show tow weight as 3,500 lbs. Add another 500 for stuff on the toon, like water, fuel, gear, etc. You show tow capability is 6,000lbs. Good to go. Just make sure the trailer has a good braking system. On the side note, this max towing weight will be reduced by the amount of lbs you add on a...

    trouble getting reverse.

    That box is the grey water drain / pump out for shower and/or sinks. Grey water is non-potable water / everything except sewage I fear the grey tank you are referring to is the sewage tank for the head (toilet). That aint grew water........

    Alpha one gen 1 steering arm slop

    That arm is aluminum, but since it is loose, I would suspect that it is wollowed out on the steel pin a bit and may not tighten.

    trouble getting reverse.

    You do have closed cooling. That tank with the radiator cap is the heat exchanger. Normally filed with automotive type coolant / anti freeze. That box in the bilges is probably a shower / sink drain tank that uses a bilge type pump inside the tank to pump it out.
