Hello all, I have a quick and hopefully easy question for some of you more experienced folks out there. I am currently running a smaller boat trailer that is being converted into a utility trailer. The axle I have on is a wee to small at the moment and I would like to upgrade to something a bit more heavy duty and a little wider. My trailer frame is 7' long x 5' wide, the axle I currently have is about a foot or so shorter than the width of my trailer. I'm looking at a few 3500# axles as I think that should be more than enough for what I'm using. My only problem is I have no idea how long of an axle or how big or anything like that for what I may need. How do I determine how long of an axle I should get and is there any difference in the thickNess? The one I have is significantly thinner than my uncles trailer axle. Any advice or links to other sources of info would be greatly appreciated. I will try to upload photos if that helps. Thanks in advance.
