Interesting idea the accessible tub under the milk crate.
You using both sets of wheels on the trolley at the same time? looks like its made for laying tarmac

Re: pimping ''My Precious""
yeah laneends both wheels at once...I was going to just use the wide ones but as they are plastic they are very noisy and will wear out over time so I put the hobie ones on as they are taller and on a hard surface they will work fine but in the sand and mud the others are in a class of their own and hopefully no embarrassing tip overs

Re: pimping ''My Precious""
I will post some pics tomorrow night but it is quite simple really...remove the axel from the hobie trolly....no easy feat....replace with a length of gal all thread and a few nuts and voula . The big wheels are off a ''Green Machine'' which I got from K mart and I left the hobie ones on cause I would never have used them. She aint going to tip over or get bogged in the sand buy the way the green machine wheels are not my idea I saw them on a yak at flinders.
