We have had this problem since we got this Craftsman YS4500 lawn mower, I had to clean the battery but the – terminal wasn’t even in need of cleaning, the + one had lepercy on it that was three months ago just a fairly light coating wouldn’t get shiny clean but enough to start good. Just had to clean it again today – terminal not affected just the + one. the battery is an Everstart it was made in march, 2013, I done a voltage check and its at 12.8, so my question was and is what is making it do this? Mower only has 241 hours on it I asked the Sears guy and they didn’t know either, but I think the batter is near the end of its life cause my Diehard in my 300 doesn’t even have a spot on it. Solenoid connection and starter connections don’t have a spot on em. I’m beginning to think Everstart lwn mower batteries are defective.

I am picking up a flatbed 16′ trailer to transport 4 four wheelers at a time. It is a fairly blank slate right now with no ramps or sides, just a 2×6 floor. I was going to make 1′ sides the slide down into stake pockets and drive the 4 wheelers up the sides on removable ramps. There are no fenders on the trailer now.

Are there any better mouse traps out there or things I should be weary of before I start building? Should I add fenders?

Well outlaws, I decided to pull the trigger on a brand spanking new 2015 Yamaha waverunner FX Cruiser HO today !!. i’m stoked I tell ya !. sign, sealed, and yet to be picked up ?..lol. gotta make a run to lake of Ozarks in MO here in a few days, not looking forward to the drive ?..but it will be worth it in the long run !. before I do that ?, I’ve got to make a run to nasville,tn for a triton pwc trailer…lol. dang those puppy’s are high dollar !!!!!!. but before I make that drive ?, I’ve got to see what the dealer is going to sell it to me OTD ?, gotta call them first thing in the morning. then I’ve got to call the jet ski dealer, and tell them to take the haul rite trailer..and..well..you know !..lol. I got a package deal on this ski. ski, oem Yamaha cover, 2 Yamaha life jackets, and a trailer, for around 14.4 k. I think I got a great deal, although I think the trailer is crap !..lol. read a ton of reviews on this trailer brand ?, and from what I read ?, no dang wonder they tossed it in the package for free ? ( we all know..there is no such thing as free..right ?..lol ) same goes for the cover and life jackets, but at least they are oem Yamaha !. anywayyyyyyy..I am going to call the dealer, and tell them to keep the trailer, remove it off the financed portion, and I will bring my own trailer.

Here we are in the Around the Garage Fourm so I am gonna start a picture thread of your Garage or Barn , shed whatever you have show it off. What I have right now is a 12×16 Shed , it’s fully insulated and I have it heated for the winter and Ac for the summers. It’s perfect for the needs I have for what I store in it for now. Someday in the future I plan on building a large barn but for now this is what I store my atv and mower and my tools.

Just sold my 12′ Landscape/Utility Trailer and I’m looking to pick up either a 14′ or 16′ aluminum trailer. Had the angle iron trailer which was very dependable and served me well. But, looking for something a bit bigger and lighter. Want one with a rear ramp and side entrances/ramps as well, which is what I had. Also want rails on the side do I can keep gear on it without losing it. Any recommendations and possible pictures of your trailers? Live just outside of Chicago. Thanks.
