Decided it would be nice to buy a new trailer. My one is a bit to industrial for the cerb! (i have used it for my offroad vehicles)

What trailers do you use?? I need somthing to make get round the low ground clearence issues.

We have an old Bateson trailer which was previously used for 2.5 tonne diggers.

Very industrial - but it does the job! thumbup

I had a brian James and currently a Bateson tilting trailer with a home made top. before that I had a 2nd hand home build.. that one was great all 4 wheels pointed in different directions but it was so stable.. it did eat tyres mind...

For a cerb your going to need somthing quite long i'd have thought. tyre racks are usefull as is somewhere to keep the straps and preferably some fuel outside of the tow vehicle...

Buy decent straps as well !!! eh Iain

Well i have all the equipment. The trailer was used to tow my comp dicovery and then a comp range rover.(Much bigger and heavier than the cerb!!) I struggle getting the cerb on and off it due to ground clearence though. Maybe i just need some longer ramps......

Longer ramps or try some graduated wooden wedges underneath your existing ramps...
