Default Trailer - Mobilizer, Craig, M832

The Corowa Swim-In in Australia is on again this March. Each year the KVE Inc. Committee who oversea the Largest Ex-Military Vehicle event in the Southern Hemisphere come up with a different theme. This year the theme is "The Year of the Towed Equipment and Armour". This should see a diverse and interesting set of trailed equipment.

One of the unusual trailer we hope to see is this Dolly Set.

Dolly Set, Lift, Transportable Shelter 5.25 ton CRAIG, Model M832.

Not much is known about this trailer and I have not been able to find any photos of them in actual use. There are quite a few which have come up for sale in the USA over the past few years, but no photos of them doing the job they were built to do.

I have ideas of using this to build an open container type platform to carry my LP2A Bren Gun Carrier, as you can place the platform on the ground and drive the carrier into it. The platform is then jacked up to the carrying position and off you go.

If you have any photos, please let me know.

Regards Rick.
