M116 Pioneer Tool Trailer hinges?

[wcarlsrud]

I finally got an M116 Pioneer tool trailer.

A nice trailer from Guy Moore in GA, the rubber hinges on the clam-shell doors, however, need to be replaced.

Where do you find NOS replacements or substitutes?

Worst case, I'll go to a company that sells sheet rubber and have them cut me a set to fit the application.

Hinges

Mine had door hinges on it when I got mine. There was residue from the orignals but I cut all that off. As soon as I can Ill put some kind of cover like the original and keep teh door hinges on it. Will try to post a pic.

RE: Hinges

The rubber on mine was long gone and someone replaced it with door hinges. A so so job. I'm thinking about a different approach, like this guy did with his. He has photos and a link to his source. Just another possible solution.

RE: Hinges

Ontos,
I saw that too & considered it but I have since painted the trailer & am now getting ready to camo it I was going to try to put weatherstrip there & then cover it with either vinyl or a rubber covering of some kind.
