Martyn,

I had sent a email to AT last week, I know you guys were out playing but I figured Id follow up to see if I could get some info on the config of the trailing arm kit. At the minimum I need the distances between the mounting points so I can set up cross beams on my trailer design before it goes any further.

Whats the current price on the trailing arm kit? It'll probably be towards the end of the year before I am ready for it, hopefully the gas prices wont drive up the cost too much by then.

Also, would it be possible to purchase your frame? That would also include the suspension, e-brakes, lock n roll, etc. I really like stats on your trailers but I'm trying to put a little more versatility in mine. Not enough room to store more then one trailer...

Thanks!

Martyn is still out playing. Call me (Mario) at the shop and we can talk about your project.

Now that's an idea worthy of patent protection!


Oh yeah...sign me up too. That's a dream-maker for sure!

I couldn't work out the cloning thing, so I went camping to think it over :sombrero:

Not out here in the West. Supposed to be 104 in Bishop today...98 in Reno. Perfect time to escape to the high country!

Normally, this is the hottest time of the year here (PA) and after being used to 90-98' heat we get smacked with low 70's I'm not complaining for working and sleeping it's outstanding but swimming and stuff it kinda stinks...


oops Sorry for another hijack.. Back to the regularly scheduled program....

Martyn/Mario,

Any updates??? :peepwall:

The design work is complete.

We are looking at possible composites for the production trailer. The original material we looked at is very strong and light weight. Once we have it finished on both sides it becomes more expensive and heavy. We are looking into some other materials that offer the same light weight characteristics and strength but are lighter as a finished product.

A few things we learnt dealing with all of this are; it is never quick, easy, or cheap.
