Trailer Axle replacement kits?

[jburn25]

Bought a new (used) boat today. 2004 1860 G3 aluminum center console boat with 90hp yamaha. I got a good deal, and am excited about it, but of course there are things I'm going to have to fix. Main thing is that the entire wheel/axle assemby is extremely rusted. The axle, hubs, springs, u-bolts, and everything else connected to them are so rusty they are flaking off in large chunks. Do yall know of anywhere that sells a whole kit of axle, springs, hubs, bolts, and everything that I would all in one? And is there anything in particular I need to watch out for since this trailer will be launched in salt water?

Thanks,
Jordan

You may also be able to find them locally at a truck spring shop, most around here can get just about anything, and be competitive in price.
Springs and hardware are pretty standard, axle length may or may not be.

i had great service from these guys, the beat the price, and shipping cost. 3 day shipping. http://www.southwestwheel.com/store/c-23-trailer-axles.aspx i called them, we discuss what i had, they sent me everything i needed. no going to the hardware store for extra pieces. total was a little over $200.

Check your local farm stores (if you have any in the area). They carry this stuff in the automotive section of the store.
