box trailer build
My team mate and I are downgrading from a race truck to a transit and trailer, we really wanted a large box trailer but settled on a Brian James 16
foot bed dual axle tilting bed jobbie we got for a good price with the intention of putting the box on ourselves. We really want an OEM look so tube
frame with Ali covering is out. I have managed to find suppliers for most parts, ie Ali moulding and laminate side panels but was hoping I might run a
across a build diary or the like to give us some inspiration but try as I might I can't find anything. Anyone stumbked across something that
might be of interest in there travels around the internet?

There are some trailer ideas on my Workshop page:

A thought:
On my build I think the rear of the trailer will be the weakest part, due to the opening door, so i am going to mounts diagonal tension wires from
the front corners to the rear to strengthen the opening.
