Default Minimalist trailer

I used this tilt trailer to get from Sunshine Coast (Qld) to Melbourne when I picked up the car, (No Donk). It is rated at 1.4 tonne, with hydraulic brakes. I have never weighed it but is pretty light and being single axle is easy to push around empty. I built it to tow my track-day Nissan which weighs 1080kg and it has done may k's without a problem. I had my sons GTS Skyline on it ( in an emergency) and towed beautifully. The Cobra took a ride on it to the engineers the other day, again no problems, but I will have to weigh the Cobra to see how close to the limit I am before I make a habit of using it!
I use the KISS principle.
