Dave, I believe the rubber bushing or "boot" is there for the slider pin to travel back and forth in. There is a cap on the end of it, and it's likely to keep dirt off the slider pin. Some of the other calipers I have seen do not use rubber, but rather have some type of metal boot or...

Thanks Steve and Dave, Donald and others. I no longer think it matters which side of the trailer. This time it was on the back axle on both sides. If I remember, this time the passenger side had both slider boots on the rear caliper completely missing, and the two boots on the drivers side...

As mentioned earlier, I have been pulling the pins at the end of the year, and then before any long trip, and regreasing them with a good quality caliper grease that is compatible with rubber. Perhaps it would be easier for me to remove the boot caps and then "oil" the top of the pin, assuming...

I sent them a message today. Will be interesting to see their reply. A quick google search leads me to believe they are not interchangeable. I've got 8 more of the rubber boots I carry with me, along with two spare calipers (and one at home), and several brake pad sets. Until I run out of...

Ok, I just uploaded more photos than I probably should have, and I'm still not done. Hope others are sending in their photos. 8) Colby

I wonder if those will interchange with the DB-35's? Currently I have 3 or 4 spare DB-35 Calipers, with brake pads, and then also several sets of spare brakpads. And just received ten caliper boots (p/n 33305). I think once my spare caliper boots are gone through, I will either consider...

Just talked to WaterBill yesterday and sounds like he just had the same problem. He also puts a lot of mileage on his trailer. He has the same brakes I believe, DB-35.

Well, here we go again. My boat trailer has EOH disc brakes. The calipers have a rubber bushing, or boot, that the slider pin goes through. (Part number 33305 if that matters.) After about 5000 miles these rubber boots start to disintegrate and/or disappear. If I don’t catch it in time, this...

Don't read too much into my comments on the Mid-West gathering thread. My summer schedule is pretty much already full, and while I might attend a gathering if someone hosts one, I don't have the desire to put one together. :roll: Colby

Last time I was in the Apostles, I believe last year, I caught my limit of Lake Trout. And I'm not much of a fisherman, so that should tell you something about fishing in the Apostle Islands. Of course you have to be in the right place, but the information I read about where to fish was pretty...

Donald, having a covered slip provides shade from the summer heat, and protection from any rain. Great also if you have a covered area to socialize, again for the rain, and if you don't want to be out in the sun. Regarding the Apostle Islands. Yes, a great place to cruise. But you do have to...

Not sure I'm following this discussion, mostly due to my lack of knowledge on some of the terms being used. But I'll offer my 2 cents. I will routinely run lines from the forward cleats just outside the windows, and the cleats at the stern. I will sometimes add a line from the bow center...

Thanks Gary. Not sure if that helps me weed out very many photos. But it gives me some idea. Colby

Hey Gary. Help me out here. I've got 72+ photos I've selected in my first round of weeding out. These are photos I've taken this year at Hontoon, Lake Powell and the PNW. So a couple questions that may help me weed a number of them out. What specifically are we looking for? Or what don't we...

I'm another one sad to see you selling. But for anyone looking, I'm pretty sure this boat was well taken care of, and is offered at a very fair price. Colby

Thanks James. I do tend to average around 10,000 miles a year on the trailer. 8)

Don’t want to commit . Like my flexibility. :wink:
