Title: HELP..... I need a Treg hitch in Mareeba
Post by: qikfor on July 31, 2011, 08:55:18 PM

Hi all swaggers I am returning from my cape trip, and until now have not had any problems but when I pulled into the motel I seen that the nut from the Treg had fallen off somewhere along the road, but lucky for me I am back in civilization and it is Monday tomorrow.

But does anyone no where I can get a Treg hitch close by?


Thanks for any help

Browny

Browny can you just fit a new nut, there are a couple of shops in Mareeba sell trailer parts, but I don’t know about a treg stockest.

The thread is a bit "how ya going" if I can't get a hitch I will have to see JFK an find someone to run a die over it before a nut.

Thanks

 I dont know how bad it is but can you repair it with a 3 square file? then buy a nut from a fastener shop
