Thanks for that gazzagood, very kind of you, i'll "pm" you my details at once.. peanut, you're probably correct. The 'blank' caliper plates will work a treat though  |

According to the Reliant forum, the three hole mounting is from either a bond bug or a later robin with 12" wheels.

Ta,
I've been trawling for a while, since the disc brake conversion raised its head on R3W.
Around the time I got my first pig (now nearly triked).
I'll get around to re-finishing it eventually.

They will be forthcoming when I re-start it.
Got to finish the sleeper trailer prototype first.
Currently looking at donor trailer plus 100 quid and a total weight under 150kg.
The only bits I am having trouble finding is a pair of gas struts with 24" stoke and a strength of about 250N each.

Maybe worth having a word with Two Showers, our resident teardrop trailer expert & distributor for "Sleeper" trailers SleepersHe builds & sells complete units so may be able to sell you the component parts. |
