Round trailer axle beam measures 95" from hub face to hub face (when hubs - sold separately - are mounted) and 80" from spring center to spring center. E-Z Lube spindles make it easy to lubricate bearings (sold separately).
Features:
Specs:
There are multiple ways to measure the length of an axle beam, but the hub-face-to-hub-face and spring-center-to-spring-center lengths are the most accurate. Hub face (A) refers to the length of the axle measured from the base of one wheel stud to the base of the wheel stud on the opposite side of the axle (when hubs are mounted on the beam).
The spring center (B) is the approximate width of your trailer. It is measured from the center of the spring seat on one side of the axle to the center of the seat on the other. This axle beam comes with the spring seats welded on.
If you are replacing your trailer's axle, you should be able to figure out which type you need by determining your trailer's capacity, the bolt pattern of your wheels, the brake type and the aforementioned lengths.
The E-Z Lube spindles on this axle are meant to work with E-Z Lube-compatible hubs to make lubricating your bearings quick and easy. Each E-Z Lube spindle has a zerk fitting on the end. And every E-Z Lube hub comes with a grease cap that has an easy-to-remove rubber plug. Just pop out the plug on the cap to access the zerk on the spindle. When you inject grease into the zerk with a grease gun, the grease will flow to both the inner and outer bearings of the hub, lubricating the bearings and forcing out old, ineffective grease. Once you see new grease beginning to be pushed out, you know that your bearings are fully lubricated. This means that you can lubricate the bearings without the mess of taking apart the entire assembly.
Dexters are made of high-strength steel and come with spindles and spring seats welded on. The spring seats are attached to the underside of the axle so that the leaf springs (sold separately) can mount beneath the axle. The result of this underslung design is a trailer that rides a bit lower for quick and easy loading and unloading.
Each axle is manufactured to create a certain camber angle. This ensures that the angle of the wheels is correct for your towing needs. Because the primary concern when towing is maintaining controlled, in-line movement, each axle is made so that your trailer's tires will run along the pavement evenly, with contact across the width of the tread. The result is excellent straight-line acceleration for steady, in-line tracking. You might notice the bend near the center of the axle; this is what ensures the proper camber angle. Having the center ride a bit higher and the sides of the axle bent lower allows the axle to give just enough to compensate for the load.

I'd like to thank odella and Kate for taking such good care of my order.
I first talked to Odella and had to break off the conversation for something else called back and Kate took my call and was able to fulfill the order and take all my information very nice dealing with the company that has their people in the United States and you're not talking to a computer!
Also was really shocked I received the order 2 days early really good work!

You guys rock…
I think Dexter or your shipping team would secure the backing plate mounting studs before shipping.
I received my shipment with a few studs missing otherwise I would definitely recommend these replacement axles.
Fast shipping
This is the 4th large item I’ve purchased, first 3 went without a problem.
This one came just as fast, but the rubber protection was off the ends so there is surface rust and the lock clip was a little damaged, 2 studs for the backing plate were missing, nothing that could not be fixed or replaced. But this was probably the shipper.
Item to large to worry about shipping back.

To be honest I would say that this does happen time to time in shipping. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.
I can’t remember the last time I ordered something and it went as good as this did the best ordering and delivery I have ever had.
order it in one day got it 2 day later. it fixes great.
Shipping time was great! The only problem was the bottom plate hole spacing for the U-Bolts was not wide enough for my springs. I used the old plates and all went together fine.
Works as promised. My only complaint is that one of the cages that holds the nut from backing off was lost in shipping, you could see that the axle had been dragged by one end. The spindle was not drilled for a cotter pin and I was in a hurry so ran to the local auto parts store and got a cage rather than even mentioning it.
Product was great and came fast.

Great customer service and great delivery times. Even with the current shipping delays parts stock is good. We have been using etrailer.com for years for small trailer parts with no issues at all.
Tremendous service, product was exactly what I expected. Fast delivery.
Axel took 2 1/2 weeks to receive. When I received it was damaged broken grease fitting missing lock for nut. Missing 1 of 2 axel mount. Great price on axel.

It is certainly disappointing to receive the axle damaged when you have been waiting to receive it. I will have our customer service team reach out to you so we can have this taken care of for you.
Great service. Thank you. Missing parts were shipped fast and I was able to get the trailer together and back on the road.
Careful if it’s wrong…they charge over $XXX to ship back.
Quick delivery, easy transaction
eat customer service ever
worked great

still going strong and they dont baby this thing.
Dexter axles always perform well.
This is a replacement for an axle that was bent. Turned very tight in a parking lot, dragging the front axle side ways. The tire dropped in a pot hole and got wedged so hard it bent axle and broke U bolts.
The trailer had 4 years of hard daily use before that. I'm sure the replacement will work well for many years as well, as long as I don't tear it up.
Just installed my axle but have not driven the trailer yet. I will say etrailers had great customer service and had my axle in less than a week.
This product so far was easy to install, I really haven't used it just yet I was waiting for the rest of the parts I needed. I am giving a good review on this company because of their customer service. Every time I have order from here their delivery is very fast, and if there are any problems with it they are quick to respond and fix it.
The prices were great, delivery on time, quality excellent, ordering &catalog part illustration made easy for do it yourself customers. Special thanks to the order taker very helpful. I. Highly recommend etrailer.com Thanks Fred

Oh my goodness, I am so sorry! I see our customer service team has reached out to you and make sure we get the correct axle out to you. This one mustve been stored incorrectly in the warehouse by mistake and shipped out as the original part. We do carry Dexter axles and we will get you one sent.
