Where to Buy Trailer Axle

[EmersonHart13]

I did their email request a quote form. If they don't get back to me by next week I'll call. I don't need it and I understand that not everything has to be done instantly.

I'm inpatient I want my parts and I want them yesterday

 

[EmersonHart13]

That will be me next week. Wheels are in the mail and I'll probably have tires by labor day. Wheels will need some sanding and paint so as long as the axle is ordered by the week after labor day I won't care.

I do want to set everything up and measure one more time though. This is something I don't want to fuck up!

Looking forward to the results. Going to be awesome

From a guy on EXPO that bought one pretty much the way I want it:

As far as the axle cost, I went with a 5200lb axle (the up-charge from 3500lb was something like $60), parking brakes, electric brakes, and it was $416 all in.

So I just need to keep searching....

EDIT: He went to redneck trailer supply. Time to email them

 

[EmersonHart13]

Redneck got back to me with a quote of: $438.07 for what I want. Still waiting on R and P, I'll probably end up calling them tomorrow when I have a few minutes.

That sounds like a pretty good deal from what you have been saying. Nice that it isn't going to bend you over too much.

 

[EmersonHart13]

Agreed.

R and P finally got back to me... Looks like $317 exactly the way I want it.

They are researching adding the inboard shock mounts for me and I need to confirm my measurements... Measure twice cut once.

Order is going in today to R&P.

Straight 3500#
60" hub to hub
43.25" spring center
Electric Brakes
Straight EZ Lube Spindle
6x139.7 or 6x5.5 bolt pattern
Spring Pads on top for 2" Springs
3" Tube Upgrade
Manual Parking Brakes
Inboard Shock Mounts

Base Axle:
Axle (109) + Brakes (148) = Base Axle ($257)
Options:
Axle (257) + 3" Tube (20) + Manual Brakes (40) + Shock Mounts (10) = Complete Axle ($327)

They are even able to do the shock mounts too so this thing is going to be 100% bolt in for a great price. I remeasured and decided to shorten it 1"... Adding is easier than taking away width in this case.
