Need help searching for axles

I need some help trying to figure out what these axles are called.

They have timberin style air bags and just bolt onto the side of and bottom of the frame. I saw them a few years ago on a TV show. I need new axles on my utility trailer and was thinking these might be the way to go.

Please help me out RV_TECH and others. Thank you. -Jason

Sorry man,

My catalogs are all RV stuff, standard beam axles. If you have a picture, I am sure folks in this forum will help you track em down!

has anyone built there own? for example using vintage VW bus front torsion beams? so they would lay horizontal, instead of vertical, re-indexing beams, & widen axle as needed for project, and rebuild brake system & using a brake actuating hitch. just an idea I have tossed around in my head.
