I had the right wheel bearing go out on my trailer yesterday (left one looks brand new :confused:). In doing so, it warped/scored the axle spindle just enough to where I can't fit a new bearing completely on. Luckily the the boat is in front of my house, but I am leaving today for a few weeks so it I will be using roadside assistance to get it towed somewhere.

I will need to have a new axle spindle welded on along with new bearings put on. Does anyone familiar with this area have recommendations for a trailer shop. I actually live in Anacortes, but googling trailer repair in this area isn't providing many hits. One of the guys at the auto parts store recommended Smiley's in Mt Vernon, and I did find Signal Trailer services in Everett. Both places are closed as its Sunday, so I haven't been able to talk to anyone.

If you have any recommendations please let me know!

Thanks

Puck,
Distance may be of a concern, but Kirshner's in Woodinville does nice work. Mount Vernon to Woodinville would be 75 or so miles. I drive past Signal Trailer every weekend, but have never been there nor have I heard any feedback on them. Sorry not to be of more use.
