Some scrote nicked the lenses of me trailer last, was outside Felixstowe/ Harwich/Immingham/Hull. What do I do to stop it happening again ?
(because driver’s have allways stuck together)
Can you draw a map for this job on my door in the dirt so I can check it later.

Wristers!
Which is better trailer hand brake, ratchet, or winding screw
These were only used on MOTs, just before the rusted cable was replaced. And when you got under a trailer that had lost all the air you would chase it backwards around the yard.

Why do tilt trailer have a big space between the rear axles.
Ah the old spread axle trailers, strangely we named the toilets in France and Italy after them.

Ha ha ! I think we all did some of that !
Just wondering, Dutch tilts, Netams were what seemed to be most frequent ones I pulled, did they use a metric size on the slack adjusters, hence why I think 14mm and others are sure it was a 9/16. Or as usual I bodged my way through with a 14mm when in fact I should have used a 9/16 ?

Pulled an old Broshuis Trombone trailer that had dropped the air so it was free to move, forgot to turned the taps on when I hitched up, the first use of the brakes was exciting to say the least!! Unit brakes only at 38 tonne…
Only did that once!
