Boler Trailer Parts and Repair
Restoring and Repairing Bolers
Having trouble finding parts for your Boler camper? Boler trailers were built back in 1968-1988, and only 10,000 were made, but many of them are still around. However, like anything that old they need parts and repairs. Finding parts for Bolers is hard because they aren't manufactured any more. The good news is that there are many sources to find Boler parts and also there are many videos online showing how to make the repairs. I've gathered the parts and repair information for Boler travel trailers and put them all on this page. Hope you find it helpful for restoring a Boler trailer.
I love seeing all the Bolers still on the road. So many people spend hours lovingly getting their trailers in shape. The fact that there are so many on the road still attests to the their quality and all the convenience that is packed inside. These little trailers really had it going on.
Common Repairs for Bolers
Some of the common things that break on Bolers are the window cranks. Scroll down the page to see the video on how to replace the window crank.
There are also videos for patching holes in the fiberglass, fixing the rainguard over the door, and checking to see if your fridge and stove work.

My husband bought me a 1979 Boler 13' 9/11/15. I bought 2 new tires to get it home as photos showed it was very much in need of them. We haven't really started on it only removed all the seats,curtains very old and wet,mildew smell. It is pretty much all original except frig and a hand pull at front door. I look forward to working with my husband on this baby. We plan to restore it to it glory not changing much if anything of floor plan. The way it is is what makes it special. You can't help but smile looking at it. We see it as a,very special piece of art and history of days gone by. If any one has words of wisdom please feel free to share with us.

I need help with a near vintage tramp scamp. I got it as a gift , and I love it! but it needs help fix and restore and update. It's a 1995 scamp. Does anyone do this kind of work as a business or pastime. please help!
We have just bought a74 Boler and the fridge does not work should we take it out or try to get a new one, do they exist? We love it but it needs some updating. Are they hard to take out?
YES! We just bought a '73 Boler, 13 ft...we are starting to take it apart and the biggest problem we are coming across is taking out the fridge so we can clean under it and paint properly. It seems to be bolted down, does anyone know how to get it out without ruining the frame?
Just picked up a '79 Boler, 17ft. Looking to fix her up and tow behind the '65 Chevy 3/4Ton. Looking for lots of little stuff for now. need the screen for the back right window, and the exterior door lamp, the plastic part bolted to trailer is busted so the lens won't stay on.
I Currently own a 13" Boler and it has been a labour of love. Took A month just to clean it up. We have put about 8000 miles on it in the last 5 years and love the way it pulls behind our Dodge Caravan. It costs us about 2-3 MPG. Well worth it.
Just bought my first Boler 17', wanted one for years and finally got one. Needs a little work but will thoroughly enjoy it.
I have a 1974 Boler~Fixer-upper. Great Fun:)
Love to have a trailer! They are great!
No, I don't own a vintage trailer but my husband's sister used to have one like this. I don't know if they still have it or not. I will have to find out and if so, will send her here.
Anything vintage or retro is cool in my book!
