Handbrake on 2 wheels only.
My $2000 bargain trailer becoming a bit more expensive, is creeping up in price, close to 3k now for the extra bits & pieces Im spending on it.
Went over weigh bridge with Landy on , 2120Kg , I thought it would be over 2000kg but there was always hope.
soooo I am fitting 4 x electric brakes with a breakaway system . Removing hydraulic over ride setup now (was only on front axle)
so once I've fixed the brakes I can legally tow the LandRover on it .
The question is , if I hook it up to another car that does not have an electric brake controller ,(like the LandRover itself) can I tow the empty trailer. Tare 650kg It would be an unbraked trailer & I believe I can tow up to 750kg unbraked.
oh while Im here, on a tandem do I only need to hook the front wheels up to cable handbrake ? going to need some clever rigging to hook all 4 brakes up to the handbrake lever.
Handbrake on 2 wheels only.
Don't know if they're allowed now but there was a controller that was mounted on the trailer so a car without a controller could tow it.

check with rules etc but fairly sure handbrake must work on rear axle only
