not seen one up close for a whie, but ..... take wheel off, put on back to front, mark where new hole would be on inside, drill hole in axel on vice, same for other side, shorten axel and there you are! this would suit the non mark orange rims, if you are still caught trim the outer bit of pipe flush with tyre face, Hope this makes sense!

I wouldn't drill your wheel and axle personally - you would then be locking your wheels to the axle which would only allow them to rotate at the same speed in the same direction. Turning would become a problem...

I had the AT out again today, and just as I was packing up realised one sides washer and clip missing. Found them easily enough but still a pain.

As my wheels have the same tubing length either side of the hub, would it make sense to cut them down evenly until they no longer overhang. This may not even be possible as they could have bearings fitted.

I understand that bolting the wheels to the axel won't work as mentioned, I had a look and the axels are fixed.

I get it now you would put a bolt right through the axle inside and also through the tube on the rim. I say no as well because it will be too weak. I have seen this design on a BCS tractor lower link pin. It fails!!!!!

If you trim too much off the rim tube and the tyre rubs the frame, you can always re shim with washers. Are you near me geographically jjll? I may have some bits and pieces you could test this out on.

No don't think so,I'm in Gloucestershire.

 

Tbh, most of the time it's loaded with brash so not exceeding the payload, but I guess the odd time it does have a good lump on it, it's likely to cause me problems.

You need to make sure you don't make it so narrow that it becomes unstable. I have widened several tipping trailers, some of which tipped sideways. Just something for you to consider.

i welded long 1inch thick bolts into box section. i can vary the track by running spacers\washers either inside or outside centre ( fitted 6 inch wide wheels) at narrowest width securing nut is almost flush with rim
