I’ve been offered a tipper trailer with the above (disc braked) axles fitted. I’ve never heard of them, but I understand that they were taken over by SAF a few years ago.
Anybody got any experience of them, e.g. snog, marry, avoid?
I had a couple of trailers with Holland axles, and parts were difficult to find when required.
The story I heard at the time (not sure if its true) was that one bloke had bought up all the spares in the UK and priced them accordingly. Parts were available elsewhere but it was a lot of faff to find the required bits.

Thanks for the above. I reckon they must be very rare going by the lack of comments. Probably best give it a miss which is a shame as it is dead on in every other way.
Cheers.

Strange that SAF-Holland do not support them as, officially anyway, it was a merger rather than a takeover. 2007 ? so not really that long ago.
