I'm actually going to end up converting mine . I've looked and they are usually what most people are upgrading to so they are hard to find . Axles are cheap too . I'm gonna need three of them and two with brakes . I know a guy who will be doing mine and has tons of experience with trailers and currentll works on big rig trailers. He is also supplying me with all the LED lights too.

Curiousity killed the cat, bit I ain't no cat! >:D
My Rogers survived 30 years on a single axle trailer, why in the flock would anyone want a triple axle trailer for a jet or v-drive boat? ???
-
Because this thing is at least 2800 lbs. on the low side and generally see's lots of highway miles on its way to the water .

Everyone I've spoken to that has gone from single or tandem to a triple says that all around handling is a huge improvement and not to mention there is less impact on the hull from sh!tty roads with the weight spread out . Keep in mind that my hallett is pretty big , as for anything smaller I couldnt tell ya .

I heard you burn thru tires a lot faster on the triple axels.

the one thing that sucks is it is alot harder to move the double axle trailer around in my garage by myself....i'm thinking i need to invest in a trailer dolly
