INVESTIGATOR 563

Just taking a quick squiz on gummie to see if there were any second hand winches floating around. Found this trailer. Just throwing it out FYI of anybody who’s trailer may be stuffed. It probably has good potential for use with an Investigator. Long enough, most importantly a tilt so the lack of the drop axel is less of an issue. Ad indicated rust free although it is painted so would need close examination although county stuff (Goulburn) tends to be less rust prone. Unreg but price is right . You’re going to need to transfer your supports and keel guides but would sure beat cost of a new trailer.

Another trailer that may suit someone with a stuffed one came up in my feed this morning

Registration and right length. If it’s good which it would appear from the photos it’s pretty cheap. Only issue is that it’s tanden but some people prefer them I guess. Just FYI .

SOLD. One above is also gone.

This came up on gumtree today . It’s the right length. Very bent, but if you were considering building your own trailer you have most of it for $300 and all you need to construct is the A frame. Certainly value of the bits in it far exceeded the asking price . Anyway FYI. If my welding skills were above 1st year apprentice level I’d buy it myself. Don’t know if a panel beaters chassis realignment machine could straighten it . Possibly a hi lift jack suitability braced ? Hang on I have one of those
