All have some advantages (not least of which is price!), but the absolute simplicity and trail repairability of leafs and a solid axle won out. I have built a couple of trailers with re-purposed axles, and they worked well, but I often had to fab parts to get them to work, and if they break on a trip... Struts are also bulky and hard to build into the trailer body.
I picked up the foam, I was out for a charity trail run, and it was just a little out of the way!
When I asked about a pallet of foam I was told that the 2x8x2" came in 6/pk bundles, 8/pk to a pallet. At $25-$27/sheet...
that is expensive. around here a sheet of 4x8x2" is 30ish. so 27 for 1/2 of that is outragious.
