Just wondering where some of you take your trailers (not necessarily boat trailers) for basic repair around the Lexington area. Same for where you get trailer hitches and lights installed on your trucks. I've used Lexington Trailer and Hitch before. Just wondering what other options there are in this area. Thanks!

what do you need done?
I would try asking on the boats dicussion board.

Basic stuff: pack the bearings, trailer lights, tires, install trailer hitch and wiring. Nothing that I need right away. We have a number of trailers that we use at work that need repair from time to time. Just want to get a better idea of what other places are around Lexington that can do this type of work.

APB.
In advance, this is just general, but saved me money. For the trailer itself, you might check a RV service shops in the area instead of Marine delears. In my case when I needed two new trailer springs installed, and wheel bearing redone, their labor rate was less, and they quoted less for the parts.
Second, for the trailer. I once needed some axle work done, and tried a local commercial tractor trailer service shop (not a highway service center for trucks $$$$, but someone that does commercial 18 wheeler repair)
Again, price I paid was only about 60% of what a marine dealer quoted me.
