I don’t want to hijack the OP, but how can one tell what axles are on a trailer? All I was told is the std duty axle is 5 lug and the other ( presumably 5200#) is 6 lug?

That was my understanding as well, 3,500# = 5 bolt, 5,200# = 6 bolt. A 24' trailer with a full size car and 3,500 axles you won't be able to pack a snack without being over gross.

I had a 24' ATC and replaced it with a 22' Jimglo. It was 1000lbs lighter and I tow it with a 1/2 ton Ford Raptor with ease. The body is a honeycomb composite. Built in a prison by prisoners in Arizona. No seams as each side are one piece. Roof can be walked on. Expensive but very well built.
