How can I figure out the weight rating of the axles on my deck over trailer? The brake drums have the dexter logo on them. They are six bolt, 15" wheels, 4 leafs per side. The seller told me 6000lbs, but they are missing the tags so I can't verify. Is there any other markings are features that will distingish these from other sizes? thanks

Bryan, if it has 12" drums they should be 6000 lb axles. I have seen 6lug hubs with 12" brakes only rated at 5200 lbs.. however I am sure it was because of the tires. That trailer had 225/75/15 "LT" rated tires. Would need brake size and bearing numbers to be sure about yours.

6 lug bolt rims do put this trailer in the 6000lb rating (1500per tire x 4)some what like the chevy and jeep 3/4 ton trucks and of coarse the proper tires will be needed to acheve gvwr.
8 lug rims are normaly used for trailers 7500lbs and larger
