I use Spruceland brake all the time. Around $150/axle. They do great work and in and out same day I drop it off. Tell Allen I sent you. Maybe he’ll hook you up with a better deal. Lol

Depending on the weight rating I'd just go buy a new one from PA and be done with it. New brakes, bearings and hubs all in one.

I don't recommend city spring.

My one bald tire turned into 4 bald tires. Then got a pissy attitude and no action when I took it back.

I just stuck a floor jack under mine and bent it back up,then I flipped the tires around on the rim,cost me 15 lucky lagers.....red necks are handy!

Hey Tyler, You have leaf spring axles right? They can be straightened but torflex axles cant be straightened. I had to buy 2 new axles that were custom made for my trailer. They make them in Swift Current. I cant remember the name of the outfit. It was only my front axle that was wearing out the tires but I had to buy both axles because the old ones were sagged out. $400.00 for each torflex axle.

I had both axels on my Fuzion trailer bend... City Spring aligned both axels for me 360$, havent had a single problem since, and I have put roughly 10K on the trailer since then.

not sure on entire axle but for other components ie magnets, drums,brake assemblies etc i have just about always found fleetbrake priced better than pa
they also sell dexter parts which are more $ but I believe that alot of times its worth the extra dough...
something makes me feel better when the bearings dont have chinese writing all over them
