Trailer for Hauling Lumber

[Kbeitz]

Mobile home axles are fine, just make sure the new tires you put on are not stamped MH to be legal with DOT. I bought a set of four 8-14.5 14 ply hi run brand for $320 these were stamped DOT off EBay a year ago, I see some cheaper prices now.

Depends on your state. We can't use them here in Pa.

Does it have a rim clamp flywheel?? ;D. If so, I'll take it, how much?  Heck, I'll send you a blank check, you just fill in the amount.  If you can't trust a goat, who can you trust?

I think I'm getting to ya.....Keep your eyes on the swinging watch....

If you get the bearing numbers off the mobil home axels you should be able to convert the hubs to conventional hubs.

The goat has turned his profit and moved on...MH axles are no longer a concern of his :D Did you even bother to move your lumber first, Poston ??? :D You're a bad, bad goat- maybe that nasty acting Kohler might be your punishment, no one else seems to be having trouble with them ;D

I own 3 trailers with mobile home axles and tires, the oldest purchased in 1993 and has traveled many thousands of miles at speeds up to 65mph with no issues except the old tires I purchase. The newer one (car trailer) I built in 2014 and just ( returned today) made a 300 mile round trip with a 1966 full size car on it up and down the freeway without an issue. I also purchased 8 tires 8x14.5 with E rating  lowboy online ( 5 months ago) for less than $70.00 each delivered so legal tires are reasonably priced.  never been stopped/cited.  As previously stated, the key  to any of the 14.5 tubeless tires is proper inflation.  My other trailer is a 4 mobile axle trailer and about 3 years ago it traveled  up I-5  to Mission Canada twice to haul my all steel circle sawmill back to the Bonanza, Oregon . I never scuffed a tire off in about 2000 miles so I would not worry a bit about the  axles or the 14.5 wheels.

HA!  Bought right is half sold!  I can commiserate. 

I remember bringing another trailer home and telling my wife that it's a very rare trailer.  After looking it over several minutes she looked stumped and finally asked me what was rare about it.  I told her, "It's one I bought that won't be for sale".   :D :D :D

This thread has been some kind of funny. And then, the magician goat meme to finish things off. Perfect...

[Sixacresand]

i remember back when you bought a MH you got to keep the axles and wheels.  People would get a machinist to cut the center out of a 5 or 6 lug rim and weld them inside a MH rims and use them On whatever.
