 Hank, If you could get
 me some pics that would be really useful.  I haven't
 been able to track one down in the UK yet although I
 haven't done a lot of
 research. Found some here, but they
 are in Alabama.  Bit too far away for me.  http://andersondropdecktrailers.com/ Many
 thanksJames

 James,

 Our local rental shop has one of these trailers, if you need
 some close up pictures I could get some for you.

 I notice they use leaf springs, another option could be
 torque flex axel stubs.  They are only a foot and a half
 long and no leaf springs to deal with.

  Hank,

  I'd been

  thinking of something very similar.  My concern was
 not

  being able to have a full length axle.  But looking at

  those trailers it looks like its quite feasible.  And

  thinking about it, normal cars only have a stub axle on
 the

  front wheels at least...... Great

  find, THANKS

  James,

  Have a look at hydraulic scissor lift drop deck trailers
 on

  e bay.  Now that is the answer in conjunction with a

  cart.  Problem is the cost, yikes!

   Sounds good Hank.  Looking forward to seeing

   it.  Im going to make something similar.  Although
 mine

  is

   going to be more of a very low loading trailer.  Got

  some

   real awkward new "pain in the neck" trailer

  laws

   here, so the old glory days of the trailer made from

   scaffolding poles and fittings is

   gone......regardsJames

   Hi

   James,

   My cart is progressing well, I have modified the
 wheels

  by

   welding new centers in so they fit the new axels. 

  Also

   yesterday I made the mount for the hydraulic motor
 that

   drives the differential.  Today I am building the

  frame

   that holds the whole thing together.  I am dreading

  the

   ugly job, I am using old heating oil tanks for
 ballast

  tanks

   and they need to be cut in half and cleaned.

   Okay, now get back to work, :-)

   Hank
