traillers !
Sorry, a bit off topic but here goes.!
I've got a two axle trailler with a load capacity of 3 tonnes. It has mini based hubs on at the moment. I want to increase ground clearance by
fitting bigger diameter wheels. Whats the best solution, since mini wheels are only small. Can I swop the hubs to a different type. What will fit ?
Help, any ideas ?

Can you just get bigger wheels with the same PCD? If so you could fit those, and fit quite high profile tyres to increase the ground clearance.
Most trailers use mini wheels, but some use larger ones, im not sure if they fit the same hubs or different ones. May be worth asking at your local
trailer place?

Ford Transit (or other similare size vans) should yeild complete beam axles and even leaf springs that are ideal for home made trailers.

12" early metro wheels or some caravan wheels will fit mini centres.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
