    I would also have a good look at the tyres to make sure they are not aged and that they meet the weight rating.

    The tyres on the front axle are good. The rear axle tyres are scrubbed out due to the axle not being straight.

The old horses have tiny feet for their weight so ground pressure is high. The last thing you want to happen is for one to go through the floor.

    Floats are like builders trailers, no maintenance is usually done until it breaks.

    The MOST Sickening story I’ve personally ever heard of was an old pissy/soggy wooden floor (un-maintenancd) float that allowed its Beaut Beasts to pierce through on a Highway Savagely grinding down to their poor Nubs prior to Police being hours later to relieve PAIN and Terminally END IT

    Finished off a fence for another neighbour to give her dog somewhere other than the house to be while she's at work. Came up great I think
