A non-driven tubular vehicle axle assembly in which the axle body is formed from the mating of opposing axle sections constructed of sheet material formed into channel members. The utilization of channel members of differing lengths combined in the construction of the axle body along with separately formed spring pads and knuckle/king pin mountings provides for ease of assembly of axles of various length and specification.
