Hi All

I bought a second hand caddy trailer to put all my camping equipment in. The owner said he never knew what the pressures were and I can't seem to find any website that has the pressures either. Its a caddy430

Can anyone help

Cheers

Glenn

I always thought that was just so you did not over do it. Should I just take it to the max then.

Hi again

75psi does seem a little too high and I have searched the net a bit with not much joy but as a suggestion I would keep it between 30-35psi, a lot will depend on how much you load in the trailer and what the tyre profile looks like under load

hope this helps

Andy
