Looking to build a trailer @32ft in length with a gooseneck. I may want to just buy a frame to begin with and am looking at approximate cost and where to buy a unit with (2) 5200# axles. Any recommendations of any near Southern Oklahoma.

You building it with aluminum?

My 30ft Goose with car and tools is right at 12K. I only have two 6000# axles. You better do three!

On my 44,by my choice. i converted the goose neck to a 5th wheel. Therefore the front load pin area has a wider span sitting on a plate instead of a center ball taking shock waves the length of the unit and possible structure issues. I have seen some goose necks with a air ride system installed similar to this.

Pretty creative i would say possibly save the structure of the trailer or putting it a minimum.

I guess I never thought I had any "abuse" going on with my gooseneck trailer and hitch. Hmmmm.
