Looking for something to tow behind the quad for feeding the pheasants during wet and winter weather.... It will also get used around the woods for timber hauling and general small holding duties.... good enough.. or not? Cheers Matty Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mattydski 560 Posted June 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 Thanks for the links. I had also considered that option.. I have enquired about a couple of those types of trailers.... locally on Gumtree.. I wasnt sure whether they would be up to the duty though... I know you thought that that plastic one looked weak... but i thought it would give and take a bit when throwing timber in.. And with it not being designed for off road........ I wasnt sure.. I ve been taking by double axle trailer in the woods behind the landy......... but its a bit tight to manoeuvre between the standing timber...... My plan was when feeding up to take the quad and little trailer on the back of the big trailer... I normally make my own trailers... but Im that bust at work, i simply dont have the time.. and it works out quite expensive, especially if you have to buy rims and lgp tyres. It would have been good to get a trailer that you could fit the quad on to, that you then use the other end... but road legal tyres would sink like the titanic on our ground...
