I paid roughly the same for a Venture Aluminum roller trailer for my 73 Tsunami about two years ago. That had the cadmium kodiaks on both torsion axles but no guide posts and no LEDs.
Location (I'm in CT) and AL prices seemed to be a big variable in pricing when I looked in to it. The brakes are a big variable too. SS is a lot more expensive than Cad and doing both axles is a lot more expensive than one. CT requires both.

I'd have to check but my guess is yes. I never did get a chance to weigh it. I went by the specs listed on this site, then added for the motor fuel and "other".

Should be OK at 5900..
If no brakes on the trailer be sure your vehicle can
handle the load. IMO 3/4 ton would be sufficent.
I have seen a lot of people towing 25ft + boats
with CJ Jeeps. It may tow fine... but stopping is
another issue.

See ya, Ken
