On the last day of June, while driving down the road the passenger side wheel of the compressor came off, lug nuts and all. A good time was had by all.
Rather than search the nearest 5 states for the exact axle parts, I decided to remove the entire axle, find a good utility trailer with a more common axle and hub sizes and mount the compressor on there.
Well here's the the trailer that I found, 5' X 8' tilt utility, 15" wheels, A-frame; should be perfect for the job. Now the fun part, get THAT onto THAT. hmmm
Success !
I found some good steel brackets and anchored it to the trailer.
All set and ready to get back to work after 2 days.
Day 1 - disaster and assessment
Day 2 - recovery
