It's a start

Finally hauled home my wide track Sankey today. Hardly knew it was back there.

Nice, I really want a Sankey trailer. Tons of room and still lightweight. Where'd you get it?

 

[Willman]

Congrads on the Trailer!

What's your plans with it?

(Tires,lid, etc..)

:jumping:

Nice... looking foward to the build!

 

[Rezarf <><]

Very Cool!

I love the sankey and the tow rig for that matter!

Looking forward to seeing what you do to it.

Lift lid with gas struts, mount my Hannibal tent, replace liftgate skin, and a coat of tractor paint. Tires are good for now but I have a friend who is replacing a set of worn 255/85-16 BFG MTs soon and will give them to me.

Local Brit who brought a few over a couple of years ago. I got the last one.

Any update on this?


Do you plan on doing a spring over in order to fit the tires? Any plans for fender flares of some sort? It appears that any tire wider than 8" would stick out past the edges of the trailer and throw rocks and dirt around.

There are loads of Sankeys about at the moment in the UK.

I dont know if it would be too much hassle for you guys to bother tring to get one over there, but I can give you some links to suppliers if you like??

My trailer build is going on a Sankey Widetrack chassis.

UK prices start at about £200 for a good one, up to about £450 for a mint condish, disc brake version. They can be had for peanuts if the body work is shagged, less than a £100.

I have a Sankey, but if you know of any parts suppliers that would be great to post up!

Cheers!

The last one is just down the road from my house, so I can help with any sourcing of parts from here, within reason.

Good info!
The Rover's almost blinded me.
Do you have any more info on the wagon itself?
I would pull it with a Rubi.

 

[Godlykepower]

All the information you could ever need about Sankey's comes from the Ex Military Land Rover Association.

No time to mess with it, so I just built a simple frame of 2x4's to hold the Hannibal and set off camping and can remove it for trips to the dump. No need to really go nuts from stock.
