Hi Shaun, I'd just go with the option 1 company name/number down the side, but that depends if the yellow strip would be wrapped around the truck as well or just the company your towing the trailer for.............

Cheers Tracy

Nah it's only for the trailer, i was thinking to same thing as you said Tracy go with the first one with logo, phone number and the website address. Just something basic just to break up the white. On the doors of the truck i was looking at putting my dads company on it the same way as it is on the side of our latest race car as the photo below. You can't see it very well but it has a holographic star in the middle the one where it changes colour the same way as NSW in the middle of the number.



I'm just trying to talk my dad into letting me do it but it's not working to well because he doesn't want any advertising on anything but yet we have it on our race car i can't work it out. Some people are telling just put it on there what can he say about it even my brother keeps telling me and he was the one that repainted my truck.

I'd go and do it dad will come around to the idea once it is done and in time,also he will have something to show at the speed way when the car isn't racing
Just say it free sponsorship..........

At the end of the day Tracy it's only small it's only gonna go on the door of the truck it's not like it's over the whole side of the truck or trailer in big letters.

Hey guys,

I have latest photo's of my unit and been wanting to post them up here for ages but been unable to. The reefer trailer is all signwritten, the box trailer is painted and axles moved back and the A-trailer now has guards and a full set of gates all cut and painted it's looking good now. I have also brought a dolly to hook all my trailers up so instead of running a B-double i have a road train. I wont be posting photo's tonight as it's really late here in Perth WA at the moment they will be up at some stage tomorrow.

How's the clearance on the A and the box trailer? In the pics maybe because of the angle it was taken, it looks like their almost touching and that it would hardly be able to turn? Beautiful reefer too I've always liked them and the white is really clean looking.

Hey Tim already have my load made up for the A section as you can see in the pics I have put up last night I still have a heap more pallets to make and by the time I have finished I should have the A and B section full.

Hey Dan your right there is very little space between the A and B trailers but still enough for the turning circle there maybe a couple of mill on turning in between. I don't know on the true measurement in between but no problems with it.

Really nice builds! The reefer trailer really looks great! Did the dual wheels fit right on the reefer trailer in place of the single wheels? Or did you have to modify the axles?

Hey mate to get the duel wheels on the reefer I had to get the axles to suit luckly i had some spares left over it's totally impossible to get duels on super single axles. We are trying to work out how we can modify the super single axles.
