I think that might be a better option than wheels. I mean, how many of us ever really move our trailer on the tongue jack wheels anyway???

I use to move my Stingray around the garage a lot, smaller boat and single axle, don't see myself trying to move the LSV around, bigger and tandem trailer.

It's nice to be able to easily move it an inch or two if you're not perfectly lined up. I use it a lot.

Me too! I've had both the wide one wheel and two wheel versions. Like the wide1 better.
I stick a jack stand under the tongue when I have it where I want it in the shop and take the load off the jack.

Thanks for the link... Thats a good price. Re: No wheel... Not a bad thought but it wouldnt work for me.. Sometimes I leave my boat in the water for a week or so and have to roll the trailer around a bit... Thanks for all of the help everyone!

Picture of broken wheels?

I'll have to get a picture of it, all it looks like it the spokes are white with stress, and the back side is cracked. Once I remove it from the jack I will snap a shot. I have the replacement wheel but I need 2 large sockets and I only have 1, so I need to buy another socket to fit it to replace it. Right now I just make sure its always level or leaning more on the good wheel.

Yikes.

How big of socket do you need? it's something you couldn't use a wrench on? Or even a crescent wrench? if you were closer, I'd be happy to let you borrow a socket though.

I think it's 13/16 and it's counter sunk on the wheel. Have to use sockets

I have to pull mine out of the garage and put it away by hand. Even tho it's a 3 car the "bays" are not deep enough for the boat even with the platform off and the swing away tongue. Thus, it has to go in on an angle across 2 bays. Have to back in and start cutting it then finish by hand. Reverse the process on the way out. So we roll it on the little wheel every time.
