Thumbs down Just lost a wheel on my trailer on the way back from IISAC

I'm literally 5 minutes from home and I heard a clunk and look in my rear view and see the trailer tipped on its side, scraping along the ground.

The left tyre came off!

Took ages to find the damn tyre, but the threads are stripped and I can't find the wheel nuts.

It's going to cost me $120 to get it towed less than half a kilometre around the corner to a trailer place, not to mention the cost of getting the wheel hub fixed/replaced.

Just what I needed!

Luckily my wife and neighbour were able to come and help transport all of the stuff that was IN the trailer back home for me. Now waiting here for the tow truck..

Will post a photo later..

So close to home!! But, at least it didn't happen on the freeway. That could've been nasty.
