Super User Tennessee Boy Posted October 26, 2023 Super User Share Posted October 26, 2023 I have a 2018 Ranger RT188. I have hated the trailer from day one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User gimruis Posted October 26, 2023 Author Super User Share Posted October 26, 2023 I've never had an issue with mine until this season. Other than replacing some bunk carpet. I don't know for sure, but I think the support of that front beam is now welded directly to the frame of the trailer. As you can see, mine is attached via a pair of u-bolts.

Super User gimruis Posted December 24, 2023 Author Super User Share Posted December 24, 2023 I've completed the repair on this issue I encountered in October. I took the support off and took it to a welding shop. They polished off all the surface rust, re-welded the support beam to the flat portion, and then painted it black with an extreme paint. I replaced one of the u-bolts with a new one and then put the beam back on the trailer yesterday. I'll make sure to keep a closer eye on this moving forward and also make sure that the beam doesn't slide back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
