Can't help you with the fishing report but EZloader is right here in Lindsay and I use to work for them years ago but I still know some of the guys in there. What trailer do you have? Do you happen to have the PN for what you need? Is it just the brngs. or do you need the whole wheel hub assy.? I could stop in there tomorrow and see if I can get it, put it on Canada Post Express, you should have it by Tuesday (as long as they have one in the plant).

lew Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 When I bought my new Skeeter last year it came on an EZLOADER trailer and after only about 300 miles something snapped in the torsion axle and I couldn't use the trailer. Fortunately the boat was in the water so I didn't need the trailer but it took 3 weeks for the dealer to get a new axle shipped in and fix things up. I was pretty pi$$ed that it took that long for them to ship an axle to replace a faulty one on a brand new rig. If I didn't have a dock to keep the boat I'd have been without it for all that time. I don't know where the axle came from but it shouldn't have taken that long IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeeter Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Lew, dont be pissed at the mfg, it might have been the trucking company that hauled it up from the factory. some of those fly by night companys can really be a nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could very well be right skeeter, I wasn't blaming anyone in particular but I DO think in the end the mfg is the one who has the responsibility of ensuring the product is delivered in a reasonable amount of time. As I said, it was a brand new trailer that I'd just taken delivery of 2 weeks previously and had driven to Quinte and back. I'd backed the boat into the water and as I was pulling the trailer back out the spring inside the axle snapped and jammed the wheel up into the well. On a mfg defect I just don't think the customer should have to wait 3 weeks for repairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Cliff Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 EZLoader Trailers are MFG. by Barrett Marketing here in Lindsay and believe me, they carry a huge inventory. The next time you have a problem with one of their trailers and a dealer gives you the run around, call Barrett directly or give me a shout. They take a lot of pride in taking care of customers! I'm not trying to say that the dealer(s) aren't doing their jobs but sometimes what might seem like a big deal to you doesn't seem like a big deal to the dealer especially if there isn't any money to be made.

fishnsled Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) Just thought I'd add this. I've been dealing with TMR for many years now and they have alway been able to help me ( and a few of my buddies) out, with a reasonable turn around. If you are stuck and in the area give them a call. (Not sure what he keeps in stock in the way of oil hubs) Jim was able to get 2 axles for 2 different trailers over the years when I couldn't find them anywhere close to home. Great guy to deal with.
