Dwyer DM-6 as replacement mast.
Has anyone replaced mast with Dryer DM-6 mast extrusion for 26x? This was in stock 3hr drive away but I instead ordered one from BWY months ago that was said would be shipped in one to two weeks and would be drilled for 26X hardware. Last update on ship date from BWY has long passed and no responses...

Re: Steering modification
Does motor point straight when rudders are strait? If not I believe you just need to detach the steering linkage end from motor and rotate it to screw it in to shorten it as needed. Think there is locking nut at end of the threaded section you need to loosen first.

Re: 26x centerboard
From memory. There is a nut inside cabin that holds the hanger in. Hanger bolt will probable be sealed in with 5200 adhesive and may need to hammer bolt end (screw nut to end and hit that to beak free). I think manual shows the hanger details well. Yes you can replace centerboard on the trailer.

Re: New trailer tires not looking good?
Trailer Parts Superstore says this is normal for bias ply tires. Had them installed on the rims and they do look normal now.

New trailer tires not looking good?
I just got new trailer tires by UPS from Trailer Parts Superstore but they do not look good! One is half inside out. The other looks deformed with the tread diameter at one side looking different from the other side.
