How to Pick Out Replacement Water Tank and Axle for Trailer

Question:

Hello I have a 2007 forest river sand piper toy hauler and I am looking for a complete axle with brakes I just need one. I had a bearing go out and destroyed the axle. I also am looking for the main water tank. The fittings that are plastic welded to the tank cracked and came apart. Look like this trailer has 2 tanks. I would need the one that is in front and has the water feed fitting. Any help would be appreciated

To pick out a replacement axle we need three pieces of information. We need the capacity (in your case 3,500), we need the distance from hub face to hub face, and we need the distance from spring seat center to spring seat center. Keep in mind we don't have every axle configuration so you may have to find a local trailer shop to you who can order axles.

For example, the part # T3584F-EZ-8974 is a 3,500 lb axle that has a distance of 89 inches from hub face to hub face and 74 inches between the spring seat centers.

We carry quite a few different water tank options but it comes down to what size you need. For example our most popular option is the Valterra part # R8042 which is a 21 gallon tank. I attached a link to a page that has all of the tanks we offer for you to check out as well.
