The part that I didn't envisage! I assume that you've provided enough clearance between the ends of the drawbar and the tow-bar for when driving over significant humps such as when dropping off the top of a sand-dune - you did state multi-purpose!Quote:

Unless you grind out and replace all chassis members with 65SHS4 and use a 275A machine that trailer is sure to catastrophically fail running into a bus load of haemophiliac nuns...
I know boats
