Did you build the chassis or adapt one from something else? I've got an old box trailer that has a totally rusted tub, but the chassis appears to be useable and it has a 4" tube axle with early Holden axles, so I was thinking of modifying it to fit under the ute.
I'm going to be using a ute chassis and bolting up the same way as factory....with the body mount rubbers. I was going to make a chassis, but its less stuffing around. Factory springs so the position of the axle is spot on. If you go to a company that makes trailer parts, they have kits for axles. It around $500 for a 1400kg axle, with disc brakes, brake lines and hq stud pattern. Most road authorities want to see a receipt for the suspension system.....so said axle and brake kit will get it registered for you. That said, in Vic, anything under 3500kg doesnt need an engineers certificate
