I borrow my boss's big flat trailer. I never smashed anything but after 2 years of struggling i built my own ramps (2.5m long).

Now i want to build my own tilt trailer.

my trailer was designed for Mini's but I had a similar fate with my gear change so I lowered the rear bar height and made longer ramp. Now no more trouble !

my hire places has a set of extra long ramps makes it a piece of cake, with low cars you also become good friends with gutters kerbs and jacks!

My trailer ramp poked part of itself thru my minis tyre sidewall today. I don't get on well with trailers. One day I'll get a good one. These days I use an 8x5 box trailer because some lowlife stole my car trailer a couple of years ago.
