Unless they have a lower rating for the axles when used in tandem, eg the same axle in single application is rated for 5500 pounds.
done.
funny thing is - sharpe walked by when i started this post, so weve had an entire discussion about his work schedule to boot. he didnt seem interested in trailer talk.
