Hi! Not being rude but perhaps drive slower , reduce the pressure in the
tyres (considerably)
Or make the trailer so heavy it works the suspension for a change.
My wings aren't even tied down ,they sit in carpeted conveyor belted slings
,but more importantly the double axle "Avon-Ride" suspension is held down by
the considerable weight of the covered trailer and made to work to even out
the bumps. Not much point in having a dirt cheap trailer to shift about 40K
worth of gear and wreck it in the meantime. A number have coughed at my
trailer cost ! So now out comes the can of worms !

Subject: Trailer rash
We recently brought our painted wings back
---From the painter's, a 70 mile trip with the
newer Europa trailer. When we got home,
we found that the top of the wing slings had
rubbed the paint off both sides of both wings,
along the top 5-6 inches of the slings.
We had glued carpeting to the rubber slings,
and placed paper beteen the carpet and wing
surfaces as well. The steel sling support arms
are adjusted so that the top of the sling just
touches the wing.
Any help please! How are other people transporting
their wings without rubbing the paint off?
