ajh Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I am trying to determine what thickness/diameter of tubing (and type of tube) I need to match the top weight rating for a set of Zu Alloy wheels which is 1400kg each and it will be a single axle trailer, is the wheel weight rating of each wheel added together for a maximum load or for an off-road trailer is there a normal ratio considered sane? I'm thinking that having a GVWR of around 2500kg would be ideal (I'm not likely to get it that high, but build to last.) I was thinking about using coil suspension with trailing radius arms and a panhard rod so that I can later equip it with air-bag helper springs (part of a forced articulation system that's about item 100 on the todo list for the vehicle) and any insight would be appreciated.
