Try a mobile home park. Some states mandate removing the wheels, so they may
even remove the axles. I know I have in the past gotten axles from a
manufactured home park, as the units came on wheels and were put on
foundations.

I need to build a 5' wide by 8' long ATV trailer. I priced a new axle
through the local trailer axle place and it's $350.00 for a 2000 lbs
rolling axle with no brakes, 14" tires and wheels and two bare
fenders...holy batcakes ****man!

I know there's gotta be something out there in the auto boneyard that
would have a leaf spring type axle that could be harvested cheaper than
that...problem is I'm not to sure what it would be.

I'm hoping someone out there has just the idea I need to kick off my
next project. Thanks and Happy Holidays !
