bought Glynne's 1.4 Howling moon.
im fitting D4 roof rails to the top of the trailer and some roof bars that I can then attach the tent to
problem is the trailer will still be too light at the front, and I need to raise the tow bar as the hitch is too high on the trailer Duncan

tows great as well
but had to load all the gear and strap down at front of trailer. Added a aluminium box inside the trailer at the front to store the wood stove and wood, secured to floor with Anti-Luce pins so I can remove it if required Duncan

Dunc, i have the same issues with 2 trailers to use, planning on adding a Defner style slider plate (twin pin) direct to the tow bar fitting.
Uses 4 bolts so can't see an issue re strong enough fittingPaul.
