well i ended up getting them, they are pretty damn rusty, the frames are a total loss, both axles look to be in good shape, both roll freely, one set of spings looks to be in good shape, the other set is pretty bad, i might be able to salvage, i dont know. all the lights on the trailer were brand new, and working, the parking brakes for the trailer were so rusty the handles broke off before when i grabed them. i was afraid to hook up air to test the brakes to see if they worked because if the tires locked up then i would have had a hell of a time getting these things home.
the strand thing is that i dont think these are 1 1/2 half axles, on the data plate(pretty gone just could get a few numbers) said Max Payload 3200lbs, and empty weight was like 1800? that would make these 2 1/2ton axles.
if you think about it, a 400gallon tank of water does weigh 3,336lbs, so i finding it difficult to think that these are only 3lbs axles.
we used a forklift to put one of the trailers in the back of my truck, and since i dont own a crane or a forklift, im think i might have to do the patented tire the trailer to a tree and drive out from under it.
or i could just rent a forklift for a day =/
