For anyone else reading this thread, Master Castors and trailers will also do custom axles
with or without brakes. I brought my Orac off road greasable suspension for my trailer
from Scotty, 10" electric brakes as well
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
Finally found a couple of hours 'shed-me&me ute project time' this arvo :-) ! The mock-up seems to be working well, rusty I know, a hot gal bath later will fix that ! Cheers 3D, I'll touch base with Scotty again later this week to collect the final bits needed :-) !!
Damn you Westy :-) ! My anxiety is high enough with overthought as is :-) ! YES, I guess I should make another tray too, grouse (Vic :-( ) fun !!!
Plan was to cut down several 'trailer' rego's and have Santa Sled's for all property needs.
* 1 x tonne water skid
* 1 x 1/2 tonne spray kit
* 1 x Harland/Russian transfer pump
* 1 x Touring/Work tray
* 1 x HC short corner cut weekend tray

Imo save your time and cash..
Make a good solid tip tray.
Then build a touring canopy to fit it.
And frame to house the spray unit etc etc..
After the first change you'll think fark this and just leave the tipper on..
And in all honesty your only a couple hundred kilos worse off....
If I knew you were building I would have taken some picks of out yota tip tray on the farm for ya..
Very simple.. and hydraulic..
Cheers Westy, agreed :-) !
If it were my old GU single cab then for sure!!
The Laingley extra cab sends heaps of load counterlevering back so whatever weight saving I can achieve is gold :-)
