Need help trying to screw these bolts in such a tight configuration.

>>1214903
you sure you put it together right?

>>1214903
flip the bolts around and it will fit

>>1214915
Very sure.
I am very meticulous when it comes to building shit. I read all diagrams first before I even touch anything.

This is a harbor freight trailer.

You'll need to hold the nut in place while you thread with the bolt at first

>>1214911
you dun goofed when you inserted the fasteners backwards. the locknuts should never be facing eachother like that.

>>1214921
Ahh. Maybe thread the top bolt first and tighten (since the narrow channel). Then thread the side bolt (while holding the nut in place.) There seems to be more room on the side bolt; I can place a spanner over it going sideways.

I could do that, but looking at the diagrams, the lock nuts are inside of the frame.

I managed to find a locking pliers, (not needle nose tho) and just reversed the order. They both fit nicely. Thanks DIY.

I think if you just held the nut at the hole entrance and started to thread the bolt on that way it would have gone fine. The nut looks like one of the angles would have caught the other nut and prevented it from turning.

You don't wrench much? What's going on with this trailer?

>>1214909
Monkeys pls go

>>1214951
I don't wrench much. I'm slowly building my tool collection.

The photo angle is a bit off but there is space between both fasteners and lock nuts. They are tightened all the way and they still don't touch. So I think I'm good.

Now to tighten everything and eventually get to packing the bearings...

>>1214972
Packing bearings are easy, you fill your palm with grease and work in the grease. You spin it in while applying pressure on the pile of grease in your palm. This is useful for changing your vehicle wheel bearings, which you won't have to pay for again after doing this.

And I bet its written in broken ass english too

The best one I ever ran across told me to turn it in the "anti-time sense direction".

Oddly enough it was an Italian device.

>>1215032
Yeah it's a literal translation of anti clockwise

Italians are renown worldwide for their mad english skills

>>1214987
They've been selling Chinese trailers since the 90s. I'm sure their manuals were garbage then. They seem to be more refined now.

Back to your logic about having the lock nuts on the outside of the frame. There will be a wood floor on the trailer. Are you saying the threaded bolt and nut should be sticking out into the wood? Same goes with the side of the trailer; threaded bolt and nut on the side of the trailer sticking out. That seems backwards to me.
