I am in Central Florida and discovered the spindles on my tow dolly are bent. Not sure they can be repaired or straightened. Especially considering the possible cost. Anyone know a shop within a few miles of Leesburg that I could check with ?

Need type and name of dolly, demco has a replacement bolt on if thats the one you have.

Of course not that would be to simple, MasterTow. Thanks for responding though.

I gOOgled around and found a Thread thread that said a Master Tow requires a whole new "lower deck assembly" and that basically totals the dolly, between cost of part and labor.Then, Master Tow shows This Manual showing spindles as "parts" for about $70 each. I don't know whether those parts are available, and if so, if they're bolted in, welded on, etc.Inconclusive, but that's about all I could find.Maybe a trailer/boat trailer shop, even a major U-Haul shop could help.EDIT: WHY BENT??? Hit Something? Overloaded Dolly?

Check with a Truck frame and alignment shop. Ask there opinion.On our old dolly, something was bent and it had a 3/4" tow in, wore the tires out in about 3000 miles. Took it to a local frame/alignment shop and problem was fixed (no parts replaced) for less than $100. KenJust googled Truck Frame Shops Leesburg Fl . Can't personally recommend them, but its a place to start.Yes our dolly was in line between big rigs.Ken
