    Wall thickness of the axle sure looks like it was thin!

    I just converted my single axle trailer to a tandem. Axles were $202.00 each. But obviously they need to uninstall the old one, put your hubs on the new axles, (brakes if you have them) and install the new one. Possibly weld the spring seats on the new axle and get the axle lined up correctly. If its a standard length axle (hub face measurement) than the price should be reasonable. But if not, the price could be higher. So the price they gave you seems fair to me.

    Does a new axle come with hubs or do they use the old ones off the old axle if anyone knows

    When I bought mine, it came with everything, including my choice of vault hubs or bearing buddy.
