Hmm, why don't you dismantel the leaf springs, shakles, bump stops? There'll be a lot of corrosion inside/between the parts.
It's easy to get the axle out of the frame when the 5/8 bolts are removed!
First and second leafs of the springs seamed to be bend the wrong way lightly?

I was going to take the springs off and dismantle but I am not sure I need to they are not too bad and I have a spring greaser that I will use to grease in between the leafs. I also need to get it back together by Friday ready for surgery when I am back from holiday in three weeks.
But I am taking the axle off tomorrow by taking out the bolt you suggest it is all ready undone I just need to tap it out tomorrow as it is very solid at the moment 07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,

Solid bolt(s)?
Better to get the surgery done first then!

You will always need a fitting spacer, somtimes more as one, as shown as in the last picture.
I reamed the bore inside the inner bush to 16H7 and renewed the thread to M16x1,5.
This works since several years very well.

Well, I don't know about any replacement recourses.
I just kept the remaining part everytime.
It would be nice to become part of the inner circle, who knows about spare parts about the Sankey trailers.
Please let me know!

Ok I need some help.
I did not realise when I took the hubs off but now trying to put the hubs on I have realised that on one side I am missing the washer that goes between the first bearing and the oil seal.
So question do I need the washer? And if so who has one?
In the manual I gave it is described as: "baffle plate"

Arlo - looking back at your pictures did you put a washer between the 1st bearing you put on and the oil seal? I can not see that step in your pictures. If not then I will go ahead and not put on in 07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,
