    Much more helpful thank you. As I mentioned before I've tested the mod with career mode and I have extremely limited Lua knowledge. Please allow me some time to look into this.

    I always thought 3 axles on the shorter 22 foot and 30 foot tilt deck trailers could be cool. I always felt like the massive 40 foot trailer was excessive for smaller/ shorter heavy loads. just a suggestion for this mod. I hope it doesn't seem too complicated.

    i sense a bit of a problem here, if were transporting racing cars to the track or even transporting small offroad autobello's, shouldnt we have stuff like a "Team offroad" paintjob?

    I don't think I'll be doing 3 axles for the 22ft trailer, but I did add the heavy duty dually suspension to it as well as new 4 axle dually for the 40ft, and 3 axle single and dually for the 30ft.

    Fully compatible with deck winch and slideable tiedown mods.

    The excavator prop as one of their loads would be nice.

    First time doing skins starting with the Blastr one so it's perhaps not the best composition wise. Tedious but enjoyable, I have a newfound appreciation for skin creators. UV layout will be provided :D Hopefully I can get the interior light to work correctly (problem is it's illuminating through the trailer) and it'll be ready for release alongside the tiltdeck expansion. Unfortunately the dropdeck is on hold as I cannot get certain loads to cooperate.

    I'm not familiar with any excavator prop, I had to double check and make sure there wasn't one all along lol. I'm assuming it's a separate mod in which case I probably won't be doing that. I don't want there to be any sort of dependencies.

    The additional axle for the 34ft and 40ft trailers already increases load capacity by 25%, I may be able to add even stiffer springs but having done so much suspension work I have found that doing so could have adverse effects such as actually making the entire suspension assembly more fragile, unstable, and bouncy. I'll consider it. As for 19 inch wheels for the single wheel axles. If someone is willing to help me make an adapter, I could add this in future. I'd also like more wheel options for the cargo trailer but I really don't want to duplicate so many wheels. So until I either figure out how to do this reasonably or someone provides some guidance there will only be the standard wheel options to start.
