Thanks for that Bedlam. Ive never towed a single axle trailer. But I'm hoping dropping from 8.5 x 24 to 7 x 16 will drop my stress level about 5 notch's.. As long as my beer isn't shook up..
I take it a 16' single axle trailer is pushing engineering boundaries because only featherlite will build one. Everyone else either will not build a narrow track or wont build a single axle one longer than 14'
I would actually say heavy 14-16' trailers are quite common. Mainly in commercial operations hauling man lifts, small compactors & skid steers. I bet you've seen them around just never noticed them.

Would I go single vs. dual axle on/off road? For the type of toys I haul I'd stay with a single axle.
For kicks. This combo survived "The Dragon" two years ago. It tracked straight and true and doesn't bounce all over.
