Tasker Low-loader restoration. New return springs.

I promised Steve (misterpexies57) some low-loader progress a while back, to be honest there hasn't been much to show really.

Until now, shown here are some of the 16 new wheel bearing's, 16 new brake shoe pull-back springs, and 4 new push-rod springs I've had to have made, and 4 relined shoes.

This trailer was in pretty good condition to say it's 60 years old, unfortunately water ingress has knackered all the wheel bearings, corrosion has also made the big compression springs fall to pieces as well, the shoe pull-back springs are out of shape and have to be replaced.
