one axle vs. two axles on short TT (20')
I was wondering what the pros/cons were of one axle vs. two axles on a short/lite TT. I'm talking about something less than 22' and 3500 LB dry. I guess I should also ask about wheel size too.

The other potential issue with torsion axles is they require weigh to work. A torsion axle that is loaded lightly has very little give and rides much worse.
When shopping cargo trailers for my dad last summer we where talking with the trailer manufacturer and they only reccommended torsion axles if the trailer was going to be loaded at least 65% of the GAWR most the time, otherwise the leafs where a better option.
I think a TT will be over 65% load most of the time. CCC is typically less than a third of max. At least it is on the 20' ones.
