Some of you may remember about 2 years ago I built a new box trailer, after 40years the old one was suffering cancer, but in its life it only ever had minor repairs. The axle mudguards etc were use on the new one.
Thanks to my daughter I am now doing major repairs to the new one, her V6 Toyota Hilux 4x4 could not climb her rather steep drive way loaded with her camping gear. result bent A frame and stub axle and bent rim
Lets not go down the question of using low range please. She is a woman, common sense ???. Hopefully the next axle won't be as easy to bend My mate turning me down one based on Ser.3 stub axle and hubs running gear.

She did a good job :o, i'm surprised how that stub bent instead of snapping off.

Do you know how much weight was in the trailer? Bob
