Axel mounts bending and cracking?

Thanks, I'll check them out. I've been doing some research and I think I want to get a used Mac. They're pricey but I haven't seen anything negative about them online.

 

I haven't gone out to check the frame out but I talked to the guy some more and it looks like he won't budge on the price so I'll pass on that trailer. I decided to spend a bit more money and get something newer so i don't have to deal with this ####.

 

They guy got desperate to sell and offered to sell it for 7k. I offered 6k and he called me back in a few hours and said ok. So now I have a project. I'm still going to buy a newer trailer but I figured this would make a nice backup trailer. The trailer was washed well and I didn't find any cracks in the frame. 1 axle has tires and brakes at 90% and the other is around 50% so I just need to fix that hangers. I'll probably get the 2 bad ones replaced and clean up the other 2. Found them for about $300 a piece.

 

I'm still not sure if I'll be doing the work or if I'll have a trailer shop do it. To unbolt the hanger, would I want weight on that axle or would I want to dump all the air instead? I'm looking at it and trying to figure out what kind of forces are applied to it. Kinda worried I won't be able to line the holes up again if I unbolt it and it moves.

 

Removing the whole axle isn't a bad idea. I'll just put a dump valve on both axles so I can raise one and dump the other and not have to worry about jacks.

I didn't really want to but couldn't pass up an all aluminum trailer for that price.
