A buddy of mine just bought an 18 ft tilt deck trailer and dropped it off here so I can look at it. It has torsion axles and I noticed one wheel off the ground where it was parked. I don't know much about them; if the trailer was loaded i imagine that wheel would be contacting the ground and without a load there's too much tension in the axle to "sit down". Is that a correct assessment?
Second thing is a rolled C frame 6" tall but only 3/16" thick. He wants it to be a 10000# gross trailer. Is that realistic with this frame?
Last concern is the mobile home wheels. I know they can be converted to Dexter type hubs with some cutting and welding.
I'd appreciate your thoughts.
