Re: [Aus-soaring] Trailer tyres

Glider trailers ! there are a few things to consider when selecting a tyre for a glider trailer, questions to ask now are, does it tow well now ? or is it squirrelly above a certain speed, how much is the total load on the tyre, trailer and pay load, do you use the trailer a lot or seldom use

Re: [Aus-soaring] Trailer tyres

Dear David Chris Runecles advice is reasonable.  There is an article in Australian Gliding about 4-5 years ago where improvement in trailer stability was reported associated with going from radials to cross-ply tyres due to the stiffer sidewall.   Raising the tyre pressure also helps provided

Re: [Aus-soaring] Trailer tyres

David, Changing the tyres on my L/W Kooka trailer to light truck type was one of the best things I've done to improve the handling. I had a quick look at your trailer last week and apart from the fittings it looks pretty good. I told shannon that I suspect it was originally a boomerang traile

Re: [Aus-soaring] Trailer Cladding Materials

Nick,   For a good strong durable cladding I would recommend colourbond steel.   It bends round reasonably tight curves (in one direction) but is fairly heavy.   Aluminium claddings often tend to pull away at rivetting points, so reinforcement may be needed, but they do give a significant we
