Well the trailer/hitch/axles/wheels/tires all held up GREAT on the trip, thanks for all the advice! Only had one sway incident where the trailer tried to come around on me, I thought I was seriously going to die. Had an F-250 extended cab long bed diesel on the trailer, and that thing was whipping side-to-side. I think my life flashed before my eyes :lol:

Wow, that must have been scary, just a push of the brake controller and it should have straightend out. Oh yeah forgot to update, I have dexter axles on my trailer and what I found was on the passanger side of the axle, their is a tin metal band around the axle with the listing of weight capacity and ID number. With the amount of dirt on it I only found it after crawling under the trailer.
