Nice job and post! You said at the end,"I thought about adding a thin walled tube from the bottom to bottom of the new 2x6, above the axle, with a triangulated gusset from the tube and up the 2x6 and rear flange to prevent additional side to side flex, but it seemed fine so far, so I am not sure if i will go to that extent...we'll see."
I don't think that will be necessary on your single axle trailer. If you had a dual axle, I would go ahead and do it because of the stress placed on the hangers when making tight turns but that shouldn't be necessary in your case.
I agree with the others above, please post a picture of your complete rig. Thank you for taking the time to make the excellent picture post! :)
