James,
I will get some pics for you in a few days, it is -18C here right now, hiding in my shop till it warms up.

 Hank, If you could get
 me some pics that would be really useful.  I haven't
 been able to track one down in the UK yet although I
 haven't done a lot of
 research. Found some here, but they
 are in Alabama.  Bit too far away for me.  http://andersondropdecktrailers.com/ Many
 thanksJames

 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
