Hey Hanno,

Great reference picture as that example has the earlier pattern wheels along with some other variations in features compared to most I've seen.

The wheel with holes around the edge with 5.00-5.25 tyres are the same as used on airborne trailers and some other WWII GS trailers. It seems these are what the towed mortar first came with and then late in 1945 they began changing the wheels out for the type found on 6-pounder guns with the lower profile wide tyres.

One of the features which I'd not seen on one of the mortars is this one has spring clips for the steel pivot bars. Very similar if not the same as those found on airborne jeeps for holding rifles and Bren guns. All others I've seen have hinged clamps to hold the bars and they look like smaller versions of the clamp used to hold the barrel while in transit.
