    Tandem Axle question

    On the Basscat trailers, maybe years ago, that had a latch mechanism to hold one axle up off the ground, what axle did they lift and hold up so you could move the boat easier in tight spots?

    That was called a Pop Axel but I don't think it is offer anymore. Yes, one axel would hold up off the ground so the trailer was easier to maneuver .
