Atleast you've ditched the t1 rear axle. best bet is on a braked trailer chassis
as looks like you have. Always thought most fun is keeping the trailer looking the most like the tug so discreet warning triangles, mind check that out as seeing many artics without them, started with Dutch wagons and saw a domestic trailer without them. Also maybe just for fun leaving a towbar on it's back end, well never know could try to create a mini road train, recall the army sankey trailers often had a rear nato too, perhaps they could lash them up in military service or off the public highway? Other option if leaving a real axle is have a PTO to drive it like Military green ovals, mind they had a tendency to jack knife or force tug to roll over, hmm maybe best left to history....

A few good ideas there Richard
![]() Yep I'm building it onto a proper braked trailer chassis. Will have to look at the regs with regards to warning triangles but always thought this was a legal requirement ![]() https://www.gov.uk/government/public...-to-get-a-pass |

https://assets.publishing.service.go...heme-guide.pdf This reads that triangles are only legal on trailers but doesn't say are compulsory on trailers though reflectors non specific are. Most sites say triangles are needed but I'll ask on some truck pages https://www.gov.uk/government/public...s#introduction
