Hi, I acquired a part finished trailer project second hand a few years ago which has been stored ever since. The tub of the trailer is very like that used on a AT chaser. The tub was already drilled to take catches but I and really struggling to find any that fit. When AT Chasers were...

That's the drum braked wide track.

PS are you sure it was for lighting. The Batteries look like they would be used for Telecoms or Radio?

Looks a lot like the braking arrangement on the King manufactured "Sankey" type trailers. Certainly using the same Bradley hitch. I'm pretty sure these use a more conventional cable actuated drum brake, rather than a hydraulic found on the Sankey units...

Coving up rust is never as good as cleaning back to good metal. I'd get it blasted.

No doubt TuV will be Europe wide at some point in the future! For now I'm happy on our little island being able to make modifications of build my own trailer!

I know that Ray (RLD) can extend them! I think every Sankey on Defender2 or Disco3 forum has had his magic touch! He's on this forum as well. I like the look of those that retain the full length A frame and extend main chassis and move back the springs. Purely for looks as i'm sure the way...

The Sankey is designed to tow behind a SWB Land Rover. The MK3 Widetrack for example is designed to follow the 93" wheelbase Defender. In theory it can be extended for the 110 and still follow through turns but be easier to reverse.

I doubt any German engineer would entertain any challenge where the measurements or tolerances where in inches!! I had to do the same as an apprentice piece in 1998, teaches discipline apparently. If you took off too much material you had to start again...you don't do that twice!

Thanks for the guidance Kurt, i'll look at what I need to do to prepare the chassis.

I'm just starting my disk braked Mk3 rebuild. Your's is the first I have seen with a Galv chassis! Looks great! I'm doing the same to mine, although many have advised me not to bother because they are so thick they never rust through on the chassis. Initially I am going to speedline the...

Looks a lot like many of the Aussie trailers. Low and long.

It looks like a cheap british army 90 (the lights, doors and rear bumperettes are the giveaway) with a Series 3 VIN

On the fence here, riding 26, 29 and 27.5 but building a 36er.
