Hi Old

The other guys are giving good advice. One other thing is that a lot of time the MH axles are over 8' 6" means they would need to be cut down to make legal. Have seen this done but would HIGHLY recomend against it. Need to be reinforced and then you need to do a alignment. More work than buying the right axles in the first place.

One other thing I have a trailer that has the MH rims (I call them donuts). Don't mess with the 14.5 tires and donut rims. You can't get squat for miles out of those tires and changeing flats on the road without a impact wrench is IMPOSIBLE. I don't haul my toys with this trailer any more. Bought a fifth wheel 12 years ago and the one with donut rims is a water wagon for the sprayer (doesn't get very far from home).
