Can anyone tell me if these would work on my 1987 correct craft trailer, I know I would have to purchase shoes and looks like lines, what would my total investment likely be?

Also note that the hubs are 5 lug, and I would think your CC #3 is 6-lug- so you'll need to buy new wheels too.

Tim, I think I was looking out the window counting lug nuts while you posted. Damn CC and their quality. I passed for now. My background is in carpentry , not mechanics. I will need something complete with good instructions. Actually I have this site for instructions, maybe I will re-think. The setup came off a "heavy Duty" 19 foot boat trailer, I'm betting mine is still alot beefier. I hate to give up the 6 bolt hubs along with the beautiful new bearings I had put in last July. The guys at the tire shop that I had do them on my way out of town to Green lake were shocked to see a boat trailer with inside bearings that big. The actuater alone is worth the money, I might price new 6 bolt drums,I might go electric, Or I might just white knuckle it till the right deal comes along. Its in a snowbank till April anyway.
