I've always built my own trailer axles when I build trailers. I mostly use 2" square tubing with 1/4" wall thickness. I cut the ends square and weld 1/2" thick steel plates, so the plates are parallel to each other. I then go to the junk yard and buy rear spindles and hubs from Mo Par cars that are front wheel drive. This gives 0 toe in and works great. In fact my trailer tires rot out before they wear out.
