Triathlon trailer

i like the build, looks like you are doing a top job on it. Your workshop is very good also even has safety paths. I was just wondering what will be towing this?

Thanks, I'm not a fan of mess in the workshops, so try to keep it clean.

It'll be towed by 4wds. The school Rosa's and Commuters dont have enough tow capacity unfortunately.

Think of the time savings and it would probably be lighter too!!!!! ;)

Im thinking that will be a "two person lift" when it comes time to put some running gear under her!

You're not going to belive it but there are such beasts, They stack and are very little more than a diamondish shaped frame with a long central beam with an eye and pintle at either end, a pair of triangles with locators on them and a pair of wheeled axles.

Max speed 5kph with 5 at a time and they're intended to move bunches of empty containers around docks.

you can also get end lifters that are basically a set of wheels with suspension and steering that bolts onto the bottom and top twist lock recepticals making a container a dog trailer.

Still plugging along. Both walls squared up and a couple of sheets welded in. 2/3rds of the floor has been cut in too. Getting there.

Looks more like zoidberg from Futurama :D
Oh, and it's "diem" not "diam"....
Just sayin.....:wasntme:
Will they just use the D40 they've got?
Can't think of anything else they've got that will tow it.

hmmm, diem.

D40 or personal vehicles... or a prime mover.

they should have bought a landie :D

coming along nicely.....

Haven't you finished this yet? :D

Always love a trailer build!

Fantastic workshop!
That trailer is going to be a ripper.
Shed and trailers are two of my favourite things!
Some expensive looking materials there, I bet the cheque book is getting a hiding!
Every time I buy steel it seems to have had a dramatic price rise from the previous purchase.


Cheers, Mick.
