    Some states will not license a new trailer built with them, but I do not think they are illegal. I have not been asked what type of axle any of my trailers have, but I have not licensed trailers in all fifty states. Although they were built with limited travel expected, some have traveled 100,000 miles or more. To my knowledge you cannot get a ticket for using them unless you exceed the axle, tire, or vehicle weight limits of the tow vehicle.
