Help needed east of denver! Trailer carnage

[shortxjdoug]

Hey guys were headed to moab and our second group lost hub number 2 and tire 3 on the way to denver. The first hub went in illinois at 9 last night and they have been driving one rig and the tow rig all night with only an hour rest.


We really need a break to go our way. These guys have been working their butt off for months to make this trip happen and working their butts off all night to get here. Currently they just flat out need access to parts 2 hubs, maybe spindles, and tires and wheels. All 7500# 8 lug stuff. Please call me direct at 8653885715 if there is any assistance you can offer

I called a couple shops in denver But it's Thanksgiving so as I kind of anticipated they are closed...not sure if the autoparts places carry stuff for 7500lb axles or what you have If someone has the items watching this i would be cool with running parts to you .

Where are you East of Denver on i-70 got a MM ?...just gauging how far you are ...I doubt this would be any help ,but I have the light duty 7,000lb trailer i pull my XJ on it fits my fullwidth XJ on it the only issue it has is I never rewired the lights permamnent since I had no connectors to do so when I replaced the lights I crushed so I just temp twisted and taped them ,but all lights work trailer is registered current with good rubber 2 new spares and new fresh bearings ...if the trailer works for you it's yours for the trip no charge just figure out the return of it after the trip . I'm an hour out of Denver ,so probably a couple Three from you if it works I'd run it down to you .

Was that you that called? The problem is its 2 rigs on a goose. It looks like they are going to push on to denver and stay there and just fix it in the morning

Don't know if they are open tomorrow, but I have a commercial account at Red Neck Trailer supply, a wholesale only dealer north of Denver. If you can tell me the manufacturer and info, I can see if they have them in stock.

If you have internet, they have a website you can look at and if you need the parts, I can set it up so you could pick it up there for cost.
