Tractor trailer

I've welded on the axle and fitted the wheels:

Which means it's now at a point where I can test drive it. I drove it around the drive a little bit, you can hardly tell it's there.

Reversing it is very difficult. Steering the tractor itself is quite difficult because it understeers so badly, so trying to reverse a trailer is almost impossible. Might be easier on grass. Would probably be easier if I went back to one-wheel-drive.

I also have a "ruck weight" that I am tempted to try fitting to the front of the tractor to see if it will improve handling.
