They are still selling trailers. I bought my dump trailer from them.

Agreed. I've towed enclosed race trailers all over the western U.S. and into Canada since early 90's (probably 75k+ miles) and never had an axle issue or even a flat tire on our trailer. Granted, I was anal about my bearing and brakes but never an issue on the road. I don't think I would have that third axle merely for a "what if" situation. The only way I would run a third axle is IF I needed the carrying capacity, other than that I don't think it's worth the hassle nor the scrubbing.
I've seen them either way but most of the upper end ones seem to use torsion axles. I had Dexters under both of mine and really liked them. Very smooth, almost floated down the highway and other than weight I didn't even notice them behind the coach.

I have nothing to add other than I got this for my enclosed (albiet smaller) trailer and it gives me some confidence.
Ryan lives in Tooele. I’m pretty sure you can go to his house at any given time and the keys are in the ignition of all of his vehicles. I have to ask him to take the keys out and lock the truck when we’re on the road for comps...

Folks are similar in Bountiful, but I don't always park my trailer at my house...
So after much shopping around I think I am going to go with a 28 foot Charmac Legend with a foot of extra height, and tandem 7k axles. I also think im going to go with a spread axle unless you guys want to talk me out of that. I realize its going to scrub more than a normal axle setup but less than a triple axle.......

I would suggest an adjustable coupler on the tongue. I absolutely love the one on my dump trailer.
What would this gain me? anything I couldnt gain with my adjustable hitch?

More adjustability, higher tow rating, and just a better built coupler. I had a hard time finding a ball mount rated high enough for my dump trailer at max weight.
This is the one I have. It never gives me grief, I never have to smack it with a hammer to lock or unlock, and it is just BEEF.

I have a similar one on my dump trailer.. but I use hitch pins for the bolts... then I simple unpin the coupler when I drop the trailer somewhere. Unless someone has their own coupler, the trailer can't be moved.

That's a pretty good idea. Are the hitch pins rated that high?
draw-tite claims 31,000lb.. I doubt Harbor freight is as high. I have 2 HF pins. I have hauled over 15k and they haven't shown any signs of wear yet.

I had the standard 10k pound coupler on my Wells Cargo but I special ordered the 25k adjustable coupler when I ordered my Haulmark Edge race trailer. It was a little tight with my weight distributing hitch at first but I really liked having the higher capacity coupler for peace of mind.
