The assembly is swift to say the least. The cleaning up that is necessary on the components is negligible, taking minutes rather than hours. The single piece trailer chassis is superbly cast, especially when you consider the complexity of the castina. The first items to be added to the chassis were the two wheels, which once again were nicely cast and contained beautiful tread detail. The two support jacks were added next, but with hind sight I think I would have left these until last, as they had a tendency to be wiped off as the rest of the assembly progressed. A small hole was drilled through the tow hitch to accommodate the metal rod handle and the rod for the hand brake linkage was also added. The next items to be added were the mud guards, but you will have to ensure that the correct ones are fitted from side to side, due to each one having a different light fitting to the other. At this point it is probably best to spray the chassis and paint the tyres, otherwise access is restricted when the trailer body is in place. For the purpose of the assembly photographs, I dry fitted the trailer body, removing it later for painting.
