Spring repairs

With the nice weather minus the last few days I’ve started my spring repair list unexpectedly early

I had bled my hydraulic steering last year only to find it’s all leaked out.
So now going to replace the seals seems straightforward but my tools consist of a hammer Phillips and Flat head screw driver ..

Been fighting a starboard bolt Trim tab not retracting . Come to find out it’s the control module which they discontinued 2 years ago and mines out of warranty.. it’s equivalent replacement is 300 bucks

May have found a 80 dollar fix that requires a 2.5 inch hole . Lol see tool list

Next project replacing my sacrificial anodes on my Motor

And replace all trailer tire lug nuts

And hopefully my last project re attaching my aluminum fender that
Have rotted out at the bolts attachment

Trim tabs fixed
Thanks to you tube showed me how to enlarge hole using a plug of the original diameter hole cleanly

19 lugs removed and replaced one stripped the lug classic

Going to split the nut off and try to replace. Of course it’s on the axle with the disk brakes that have be used in 13 years
