Because I work mostly on rough building sites, I was not so happy with the rock hard wheels on the sys-roll. The systainers are bumping all around, and the slightest rock or piece of wood will stop the wheels completely.
The other day I put the sys-roll on a handtruck to move everything to another room in the building, and this was a huge improvement. So i've put rubber wheels, with air, on the sys-roll and it works great!
With very little work, replace the axel with a wider one, and nothing even has to be changed on the sys-roll itself. Like it's ment to be replaced.
Thought I'd share it with you guys.

Nice work! Are you able to provide a parts list so as to assist others who may want to adopt your great mod idea?
-
Really excellent upgrade idea!
Yes please list materials and sources if you can.

Great idea. Adding larger wheels on the rear would cause the SYS-Roll to lean forward. Has that caused any issues for you?

That's correct, sharp ;D
At this point it's leaning a little bit forward. So I ordered bigger front wheels which have the same mounting points to I can replace them easily.
I will write down all the parts which I had to get to get the Sys-roll updated. Will do that shortly.

Cool... I just posted a new message about the Rotatruck stair climbing handtrucks... they are pricey! https://www.rotacaster.com.au/shop-product/rotatruck-lite/stair-climber-lite

The back table and legs are also interesting! Can you show more details?
