    Spent a few hours down the shed today getting the trailer ready to rego.
    Packed the wheel bearings with grease,had only oiled them whilst moving it around in the shed.
    Re-fitted the wheel carriers and the four wheels.
    AND FITTED SOME STICKERS
    Had a little play drive around the carpark and backed it back into the shed.Steers really well backward,the body is slightly wider than the Disco so you can see it niceley in the mirrors.
    Waiting on a set of Narva Marine LEDs Ive ordered,wiring,handbrake cable and she is ready to rego!!!

    Excellent job. Can't wait to see it with the camper top on when you get it.

    ITS FINISHED




    Finally on the road!!!
    Few things I will be adding over time,dual batteries(set up for 2x165AH truck batteries) watertank,crate and possibly a canvas cover and when the $$$ are available a camper top(ANYBODY WANT TO BUY A PAIR OF STAGE 1s???)
    A couple of teething issues to sort,1 trailerbrake isnt working as hard as the other and both wont lock under full manual control(adjustment I suspect)
    The other issue is its not towing 100% straight.Not by mutch but I can see it in the mirrors,hoping I can adjust it out on the axle.Im thinking the drawbar triangle is slightly out.
    Great to have it out of the shed,problem is nowhere to park it without blocking the drive-thru driveway.ANYBODY WANT TO BUY A PAIR OF STAGE 1S????? Will have to put it back in the shed for the time being.
