Are those base plate frames for equipment at a power plant?

How are you liking those upgraded axles over the 7k you took off? You went 8k correct?
I've got a 20ft trailer I'm looking at putting different axles on it being the brakes on it have never been used in 15 years so I don't know if I'll be able to save them, haha. Plus they're only 5200lb axles and I know they've seen 7-8k lbs. Was just curious how you were liking them.

Yes base plates for equipment in an ethonal plant.
8k came from the factory.. Kaufman has a bastard 8k. In short is a 8k tube bearings with a 7k brake.. I currently have lippert 8k with all std off the shelf parts. The closes lipperter dealer sell the whole axle with Springs mounted for 600.00 with 27" eye/slipper springs.. Fwiw avg cost for backing plate, bearings, hub/drum for a 7 is ~300.00 per hub or 600.00 and axle.. Dexter is ~1100.00 ready to bolt in.

Outside grease hubs (repacking every ~10,000 miles or 5 weeks) I have no problems.
Redneck makes an acron/conical but for 5/8-11 studs. They can be had with 9/16 studs
