found a great deal on axles. My trailer has a 4" drop axle right now.. so i think this weekend i am going to pull it out and put in a straight axle. Give me a 4" lift. To get out in trails with out dragging.
Got some plywood from work. Now just looking for a free or cheap puton matress. Hopefully by the end of the weekend i should have some more pics up.

Today i took the 4" drop axle out. I found a place near my work that makes straight axles for $140 cdn. So it will give me 4" of clearance for the trails.
Took about a hour. pretty simple.
