Trailer I am building an off road 7x4 trailer with treg coupling and 16inch alloy wheels to keep in the same track as the tow vehicle.
Could only find 1 TI X-Trail that has been written off in SA so finding the rims was not easy. Any one else done somthing similar?

Re: Trailer When we built our trailer a couple of years ago we made sure the wheels matched our commodore; saves carrying an extra spare for most travelling. Have been thinking about swapping the commodore hubs on it for ones that match the exxy (but might have to wait for a major trip preparation). Didn't someone say BA falcon wheels fit? Their rims might be easier to source.

Re: Trailer cuff4, with regards to the rear window protector it's easy to make your own. All that is needed is to cut the shape of the winodow out of perspex or even laserlight & use self adhesive velcro cut into small pieces & stuck around the edge thus making it removeable. Dont worry about cost of perspex etc as rear window will set you back $1000 if you smash it!! Hope this idea helps.
