There are two ways to determine what spindle you have on your 2004 Triton Elite WCII Jet-Ski trailer.

The first way is to look at the number that is stamped on the bearings that you removed when you took the hub off.

The second way is to use a dial caliper and get the measurements and find the spindle that matches those measurements.

The new spindle must be absolutely square with the axle in order to prevent tire wear and wheel tracking problems. I would recommend finding a welder who is experienced with trailer axles. Your local RV dealer or repair facility could probably refer you.
