HI, I got my estimate from the Saturn Industries trailer / fabrication repair shop here in Winnipeg, both axles are bent, the front one more so.
They recommended that I go with two new #3500 pound Flex-ride axles
http://www.ucfamerica.com/flexfull.html because of the replaceable spindles.
I will also put on four new Carlisle ST205R14 tires, the tires are rated at 1760# each. I will use my existing electric brake drums.
We talked about going to 15" tires but Saturn said to stay with the 14" and see how things work out.
Project cost $2000 plus tax.
My all up weight is 5400# which is at the current sticker of 5450#.
