[PSUBS-MAILIST] Hanks Trolley

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

James,
Our local rental shop has one of these trailers, if you need some close up pictures I could get some for you.
I notice they use leaf springs, another option could be torque flex axel stubs.  They are only a foot and a half long and no leaf springs to deal with.

 Hank,
 I'd been
 thinking of something very similar.  My concern was not
 being able to have a full length axle.  But looking at
 those trailers it looks like its quite feasible.  And
 thinking about it, normal cars only have a stub axle on the
 front wheels at least...... Great
 find, THANKS

 James,
 
 Have a look at hydraulic scissor lift drop deck trailers on
 e bay.  Now that is the answer in conjunction with a
 cart.  Problem is the cost, yikes!

  Sounds good Hank.  Looking forward to seeing
 
  it.  Im going to make something similar.  Although mine
 is
 
  going to be more of a very low loading trailer.  Got
 some
 
  real awkward new "pain in the neck" trailer
 laws
 
  here, so the old glory days of the trailer made from
 
  scaffolding poles and fittings is
 
  gone......regardsJames

  Hi
 
  James,
 
 
 
  My cart is progressing well, I have modified the wheels
 by
 
  welding new centers in so they fit the new axels. 
 Also
 
  yesterday I made the mount for the hydraulic motor that
 
  drives the differential.  Today I am building the
 frame
 
  that holds the whole thing together.  I am dreading
 the
 
  ugly job, I am using old heating oil tanks for ballast
 tanks
 
  and they need to be cut in half and cleaned.
 
 
 
  Okay, now get back to work, :-)
 
 
 
  Hank
