Checked out the bare chassis with the new suspension fitted at the Adelaide show , it looks like itll work but a bit worried with the camber bolts - looks like there alluminium (i know there not ) if a rock or two smash these spells disaster , Id have these as spares , also I would sack the robot welder the welds on top which we would never see were all spoggy sh#t
just my own thoughts ....

Dramatic's right.... what was the cameraman holding onto for those shots underneath the van... Indiana Jones?

Seriously - the new setup looks good.

Would like to see more support in the top spring seat, and it's a shame they couldn't "trail" the front mounting points up behind the cross member for more protection.

But overall most times when I see independent on a trailer I ask "why" what does it achieve? I know the advantages of independent but in most applications on a caravan it's not a lot of advantage IMO. But no doubt it will become the "must" have option otherwise resale will be affected.
