if so, what arms have you used to fix the issue??
Took the diesel
Tank off my b275 today as there was a layer of gunk in the bottom, which had worked out into all the filters.
gave it a good wash out with the power washer, but wondering what the best way to make sure it’s clean and dry before I start to rebuild and use it again

Looking for advice on locks and devices to make my trailer a bit less removable.
Trailer can be parked at a variety of different places, so can’t always secure it to a solid object.
It’s on small wheels (195/55/10) so most wheel clamps are too big.
looking for advice from others as to what they would do in my situation.
Local matches round here are run with classes for 10" and 12" ploughing, not vintage and classic like in other parts of the uk.
