[Vwdiesel] VW rear axel for trailer

[TexasTDI]

Here in the South I'm always seeing people making trailers out of pickup
truck beds.  Just cut an old pickup truck in half, between the cab and bed.
Then weld a tongue onto the bed.  Instant trailer.  When it comes time to
register it, just tell the DMV it's a home made trailer.
