Update: My trailer made it home without collapsing .

I had mentioned a few weeks ago about bringing a trailer home from the bush that I was worried that it would collapse 200km later, including a 30km bush road. Now it is in the yard, ready to be dismantled. I feel much better knowing I could get it home before it came down.

    Aw man, no pictures ?!?!?!

    Glad you got it home OK!


    ... I could post a picture of it sitting in my driveway, but it wouldn't be that exciting.

    Dang. Was hoping for a posted youtube disaster ;)


    If it had happened, I would not be doing that. That is what is referred to as evidence.

    X2!! by the way how did you reinforce it for the trip?


    I didn't. Years ago, over the frame rail I put a brace in the worst area. I guess that was all it needed.

    Congrats. Many thought you wouldn't make it past the dirt road.
    Good job. :C


    I was one of those many. I fully expected having to clean up a mess at the side of the road.
