Can I just upgrade to 5200 pound axles ?
OK...example; I have a trailer frame with dual axles rated at 4400 each. The frame design is well built with a tubular frame. So lets say the axles are rated for 4400 each now and I have 15 inch E rat...

Have to agree 100% with what tinner12002 stated. ;)
While the weight increase you are looking for is not huge, the RV industry is well noted for designing and constructing their trailers to just barely meet the GVWR going out the door. So that while you may be upgrading the axles, there well may be other very weak links which will be over their capacity when you go over the original GVWR.
