Donor trailer reconfig question

Postby hankyknot » Tue Sep 04, 2012 5:45 pm

Hi everyone,

picked up my donor trailer today...

As you can see it seems to sit a little high. The axle is straight and hangs outside the bow of the spring as shown here...

What I'd like to know is can I move the axle so that it sits inside the bow of the spring rather than outside?

Sure as long as the trailer when built is not so heavy the it will bottom out when you hit a bump.
