Also on a simular thread a few months ago there was a discussion on Lippert frames and Chinese axles, so I called Northwood Mfg., since I know some of the Reps, and asked the question. They assured me that they use Dexter axles and make their own 12" I beam frames. I actually went out and measured the frame on my Fox 5er.

GCP, consider getting a new 5er and if you're thinking about an Arctic Fox and would like to see one for yourself, you're welcome to see ours since you live in Albuquerque and there is no Arctic Fox dealer here any longer. I ordered ours out of Idaho. I really don't want to talk you into getting a Fox if that's not what you want because there are other well made 4 star rated units out there and one 5 star.

I was looking at a TT Arctic Fox and a Nash TT. I believe it was a 27E model. I saw a sticker that said Libbert on the axle. Hopefully I'm wrong it was another trailer on their lot, but it shocked me to see that sticker on the axle which is why I remembered it so well. I also looked at the Nash 26Z2 while I was there.
