Trailer with landrover wheels?
Im looking at modifying a trailer so it will take landrover wheels (and increase the ground clearance)..
Does anyone know where I could find stub axle type things with drum brakes and landrover wheel bolt pattern? Or is it going to be a custom job?
Kinda like in this photo?

Landrover axles have floating halfshafts, ie the bearing sits on a stub axle and the halfshaft is unsupported.
If you get an axle off a landrover or classic rangerover the stub axles have six bolts that mate to the axle housing.
I,d buy a complete rear axle off fleabay for £10 and cut off the ends if you want to keep the brakes or unbolt the stub axles if not and through the
rest away.
