I would if I could, it was my first thought. (Any very easy)

The trailor takes to boats, it would be to hard to lift the second boat on at that height. The other thing is, this trailor will not ever see dirt.

Thanks for the Thought Cheers

Does it run one of those silver relay/solinoid set ups? cause a good shunt to one off those will stop it switching. I don't know what a Pirahna set up looks like, but it would be my guess.

To get the disks off, pull your wheel off, undo the 2 bolts which hold your brake calipers on then remove ...tie up and away. Then with a soft hammer, give your disk a tap (then again they may just come straight off) off and there you have it. Don't get in your truck at anytime and press your brakes ...

Bleed your fuel lines, check your filter and have another go, make sure you have good fuel pressure. If the engine is turning over then most likely it will be mechanical. Once you get it going check your battery is charging
