Best bet buy another trailer or put a bigger axle under it. See what size axle that is. I'm guessing 3000lb. You shouldn't be anywhere near the weight limit on that. I appreciate the response, but I don't have the money to buy a new trailer. I feel the boat and trailer bounce a little more than I would like it to when towing and would feel safer with another set of wheels underneath it.

You will spend more getting a axle added than it will cost to buy a new trailer. I'm guessing for labor and axle you will spend at least 700.00. There is a a lot of labor that will go into it to do it right. You can't just slap a axle on it and it be good. Look around on Craig's list. You can probably get a trailer for 400-500. You may be right

If you have to make a sharp turn backing your trailer into a garage, you will hate having dual axles.
Take your kids hunting instead of hunting your kids.
I'd rather be LOST in the woods than FOUND in the city.
Drive a hybrid, I need your gas.
Your mind is your primary weapon. Never let it get rusty.
