..before anyone asks, that's the total trailer weight. I unhitched from the TV and was able to get the axle and tongue jack on the scale. I also checked the tongue weight which was 110kg.

Boler 1700 Side Marker Lights

Has anyone replaced the side marker lights on their Boler 1700?

Screw holes are 3" center to center.

I had the same problem. It felt like the trailer was constantly "pushing" the tv. The nut was loose on the ball. I clamped it in a vise and used a pipe wrench to tighten and the problem was solved!

I ordered the same unit from DM and just received it last Friday. It's identical to the one I pulled out so either the old one is 88L or the new one is 77L. Either way it fits perfectly.
