    GVM is limited to 2 tonne unless the trailer has brakes on ALL wheels and is fitted with a breakaway system. This usually means 4 wheel electric (cost effective and practical), but the code does not stipulate design only requirement.

    That is correct...it has 4 wheel electric brakes with a breakaway system....

    Queensland transport has adopted the Federal Goverments ADR's for trailers which we have followed

    Good idea - Every time I go to use the one at work, the battery is flat, and I end up having to wait around until its charged...

    Great work Ho Hars as usual

    This is definatly now on the future projects list, I still rekon it would be cheaper to build a 3 ton GVM trailer than buy one

    What are the final dimensions of the deck?
