Trailer build Ep12 - Wheels and suspension re-fitted

Suspension and wheel assembly were restored by removing corrosion and painting with "Metalfix" converter primer, then over coated with zinc primer.

The moment of truth was when the assembly fit onto the trailer frame. It was within millimeters accuracy thankfully.

Restored wheel axle assembly re-fitted

Still a bit of silt on it from the major flash flood  that swept through one night in Feburary 2019.., the culmination of a severe lengthy 9 day monsoon convergence that saw 200 to 300mm fall nearly every day. (About 1500 mm, 4 feet of rain in just over a week, more than the annual average!) . The Rollingstone creek eventually burst its banks and it sheet flooded over many square Kilometers. About 13" deep tore through the boat yard for about 4 hours. Luckily no damage to tools as these were kept elevated, but it took some time and effort to clean up flood debris.

Drop axle and double keel rollers

The drop axle allows the keel to be slung a bit closer to the tarmac and aid launch/retrieval.

Suspension and brake arm

The trailer is rolling again!
