Possibly 3" .375 wall. That might work, I'm going to make some calls today.

Yep, that axle is tweaked but good. We're you carrying a full load in the trailer at the time?

All the tanks were full. Probably within 300lbs of a full load.

OK, Amber found the 3" .375 wall DOM for $170 locally. She's going to pick it up at lunch.

I've got 3" u-bolts from my old axles, I just need to make some new spring plates and weld everything back together. I'll be back on schedule with a bulletproof axle in a couple days

it should weigh right around 40lbs for the tube. Not too bad.

Axle 2.0 is completed! Tomorrow I need to make new spring plates and bolt the mofo back under the trailer where it belongs.

I don't think I'll ever have to worry about bending this one.
