Axle Replacement
It looks like I will be replacing a 4400 lb Dexter axle probably caused by a castle nut backing off and causing hub/brake destruction. In looking at sources, no one seems to carry that one any more. The 5200 lb axle seems like the most likely. It appears to come with 12" brakes while the 4400 had 10" brakes and there is the dilemma, do I just replace the one and have varied braking capacities, or spend the extra $500 or so (parts and labor) to replace both axles?
