Tom Remember how Burley trailers used to have that full roll cage thing? For a while their two-seater D'Lite model had spoked wheels on regular front hubs that would QR to aluminum dropout things that were attached to that roll cage thing.
imagine one large rectangle of metal. This thing wraps around the outside of your vehicle. The outside dropout for each of the four wheels attaches to that. Two rails cross front to back. The inner dropout for each of the four wheels attaches to those rails. Now your wagon platform is bordered by the original rectangle front to back and the rails side to side.
