I prefer the tracking and weight distribution of dual axles for primary road use. Off-road, the single axle would offer less scrub resistance when turning and encourage vertical articulation rather than resist it.
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'
