I really want to fish this weekend, but have not had time to get my trailer "fixed" after a bad experience trying to haul gear last weekend.

I need to move my trailer axle back to the back position.  It is currently set to the front one which is used for "heavy" loads.  Because my yak and gear is "light" compared to a nominal trailer load, I have to do this axle move first to even attempt to use it this weekend to get out to the water.

Anyway, I would like to tackle this axle move after work this afternoon and don't have any friends outside of this club that I can ask for help.  Heck, I hate asking, but I know if I try this on my own, I will probably destroy my back for fishing.  I have all the tools, the jackstands for the trailer, and any beverages or refreshments that you might want I will supply.  I can even wrench and do most of the work.  I just need somebody to help with moving the heavier stuff, lifting, etc...  The whole process is like a dozen bolts total.

The trailer I am working on is this one:  http://www.utilitydump.com/UD5806.asp

Anyway, if you are in the area, have a couple hours after 2:30pm this afternoon to spare, and can help...please pm or gimme a shout.

Loaded up the yak and taking on a freeway testdrive right now.  If all goes well, I'll be fishing somewhere.....
