Here are some photo's of our trailers coupling. Originally it has a MkI coupling, but that was in need of total restoration. We replaced it with a MkII, but we kept the original handlebars.



Cheers,
Arjan

Gooday Arjan
Beautiful photos and very detailed.Does that mean I have a Mk 2 trailer if it has the coupling with the lift handles built in?Also do you know what stops the lunette pulling out of the coupling.
Cheers Ken

Hello Ken,

A far I know this coupling is a Mk2. When I look at the id-plate of my trailer, it says "MkII S.S.O." So I can't say if your trailer is a Mk2. Has your trailer no id-plate?

Cheers,
Arjan
