Which Trailer Axle Company is Best, Lippert Dexter or Al Ko

Question:
Hi, I read a answer to a question about the quality of a dextor torsion axle vs a AL-ko torsion axle. How does a Lippert torsion axle compare in quality and design? Thank you,

Helpful Expert Reply:
I would recommend Dexter Torflex axles the highest for torsion axles. And then put Al Ko and Lippert at about the same in quality.
I was searching around online and the common consensus among the trailering forums is that the Dexter axles are definitely the ones to go with if at all possible.
Lippert is a great company that does a ton of things really well, but Dexter does axles the best.
