A practical idea for servicing trailers

[Bruce Fielding]

I know I'm supposed to, but apart from greasing bits, I've never bothered to give my trailer a good service. However, I've had a brianwave (sic). How about if we get a group of us to get a Brian James mechanic to a track meet who could service all the trailers when they're not in use? Then we could split the cost of the mechanic for the day and all have properly serviced trailers!

Or do it yourself. It's dead easy?

It's not at all difficult -BJ provide step by step instructions with new trailers.

Dead easy to do brake adjustment and the like, sure, but BJ also say it should have servicing - I assumed it was checking/adjusting/lubing the linkage damper?

Anyway, I think it's a great idea! Suggest to a track day company?

Sounds like a good idea to me, haven't got the time to beard around with the trailer too!

Talked to BJT at the Autosport show and they seem to think it's worth investigating...

Fingers crossed (and fingernails ungreased!)
