Axle Weight ?
I am looking at the spec sheet for my single axle 2008 Fun Finder X-160. Can someone please tell me what "Axle Weight (lbs.) 2043" means? Thanks! Regards, Michelle

This seems crazy to me- how can "axle weight" be limited to over a thousand pounds LESS than the gross weight of the trailer???? Surely that can't all be carried on the tongue (which is given as less than 400 pounds)-?
My advice is to crawl under there and look at the specs on the axle itself....should be at least a make/model on there somewhere.
I tried. Couldn't find it. Where do I look?
I don't know if there's an industry-wide standard spot, but as an example Dexters made since about 2001 have name/sn stamped on the beam near the center. With that info you can get axle capacity from mfr.
