I believe
Burro
used the same Torsion type
axle
as
Scamp
and
Casita
.

Robert, I bought the axle for my
Scamp
at
Potter Webster
... near Jubitz. Nice, helpful people. It's a Dexter EZ-Lube.
And yes, $1300 would be a great price for a 17' Burro in good to great shape!

Lucky, yes. I paid almost 3x that for mine, same year and size.
And my axle is simply underrated--at 1500 while it has 1700 on it almost empty. So I will probably replace that next spring.
Keep us up to date on your progress if you get it. I'd be looking forward to pictures for some comparison . . . .
