i'm needing to replace SWEET PEA's trailer axle and hubs. the trail-rite trailer was built sept of '83 and came with hub brakes. the brakes are long gone (rusted to a hollow shell) along with the surge hitch. all are past their working lives. the frame has been cleaned and repainted. i replaced the tongue (there is a story in that) late fall '09. the axle springs, rims and tires were replace in '08 by SWEEP PEA's prior owner. i need to find a replacement axle/hub assembly. the trailer is 'rated' for a load of 2490 pounds. i just don't know all the specs ... my 'quick and dirty' measurments are: * hub bolts are ~2 5/8" on center * the 'drop' for the hubs is 4" * the axle, square, is about 68" long. anyone have the specifics? does the pacific trailer used for the new M17's use the same axle and hubs as that used on the old trail-rite? dave scobie M17 #375 - SWEET PEA visit SWEET PEA's www-site - http://www.m17-375.webs.com _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats Remember, there is no privacy on the Internet! _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats
