Interested in a group buy? New axle for Komet trailer

I have been working with the USA distributor for Knott axles, Autoflex Knott in Michigan. They can order replacement axles from the main plant in Hungary, and they have verified the correct mounting and width for my axle on my Komet trailer with the factory. The cost is $500 FOB Michigan, and it will be fabricated in May and expected delivery in early July.

If you have an old Komet trailer, you may have noticed that as the rubber strips in the torsion axle age, the suspension settles. What you may not have noticed is that the rubber also gets very hard, so there is very little suspension travel or shock absorption.

My axle hub face track width is 1530 mm (60.25") The lateral spacing of the mount holes is 1100 mm (43.3") and the longitudinal spacing is 160 mm (6.3").
There may be other sizes that went on other sizes of trailer, but for regular Komet trailers for std and 15M class gliders, that is probably fairly universal?
