Transmission temp gauge, some people say put the probe in the pan. Some say in the transmission line to the cooler. I think the cooler line would be easier to install and more accurate. Thoughts?

Is the JB weld not sticking, or just too hard to work with? Get the torch and some brazing rod out and go to town.

This is where I picked mine up from. There are a few ways to do dual fans. I went with the 185 and 210 sensors IIRC. One fan comes on w/ one, when it hits 210 both should be on. Seemed this was the best way to keep the amp draw down. When you buy relays, buy extras and throw them in your glovebox.

Anyone ever delt with Dexter trailer axles? When I bought the trailer 3 yrs ago, I specified 5200lb axles. A few months later I noticed that the VIN tag said 3500lb. The tag on both axles shows item #D60. Dexter website shows an item D52 and D60, so I assume 5200lb v. 6000lb, but it shows 8 studs on a D60. Mine only has 6. I can't call them till tomorrow. Anyone know?

Are they five lug bolt pattern or 6? If five then they are 3500 I believe.

I have always ASSumed that 5 lug = 3500, 6 lug = 5200 or 6000, and 8 lug = 7000+, but I do not know for sure if that is true. I am trying to figure out how to prove what axles are really under it so I can splain it to a cop if I get pulled over.
FYI, and Gehl track loader(bobcat) weighs 7400lbs. No idea those things were that heavy.

The 6 lug axles on my trailer ar 5200 lbers. I believe you are right that generally 5 lug= 3500 lb, 6 lug is usually 5200 lb but can be 7000, and 8 lug is 7000 lb and up.
