Going to be a do-it-yourself job and I, while cute as bugs ears, am slightly illiterate mechanically.

Can someone recommend a patient vendor I can call - give specs to and order set from?

I have to move our 1966 caravel to get it registered this weekend. In the medium term I will be replacing the axles, however to just get the paper work done I'm going to repack the bearings and maybe replace the brakes. Can someone please tell me what seals I need and what size of brakes etc..?

I wont be able to get to the airstream until the weekend, so I can't go investigate on the actual trailer.

Thanks everyone,
