TEXAS LEXUS!
I'm going to start my offroad camping trailer build soon. Similar to @Box Rocket but some differences. It will carry ~ 500 lbs of stuff & maybe a RTT in the future. It'll never exceed 1,500lb. 4x6 w/~20" tall walls. Frame will be 2x3x1/8" and have a 'combination' A frame tongue (center tube, that hitch mounts on, will go under & back to the 2nd cross brace & A sections will be angled about 35* & go under and back to 2nd cross brace). Walls will be 2x2x14g w/16g sheet over them. I plan on using a Dexter 3,500 lb axle w/ 1K lb springs & some cheapish shocks. Wheels/tires the same size as my 80. ~20gal H2O tank/pump/heater. My questions are:
Is the 2x3x1/8" strong enough for the A frame tongue?(I can do 2.5sq. x 3/16" if need be)
Is there a complete axle kit w/axle, springs, hangers, hubs, etc.? (they all seem to have 3,500lb springs)
Any brand axle to stay away from?
