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.
etrailer axles 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.
With typical electric brake assemblies, you need to manually adjust them every now and then to make sure you're getting the shortest stopping distances every time you tow.
With self-adjusting brakes, though, you'll always have peak stopping power - simple as that! As the brake pads wear over time, a tensioning cable will automatically keep the pads in alignment so they'll consistently make contact with your drum when you brake. You won't have to do tedious manual adjustments anymore.
This hub-and-drum assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This assembly has also been tested by QAI Laboratories for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: 8 on 6-1/2 means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: 5 on 4-1/2 means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

The correct nuts but the washers are to small. I'll have to pick them up because the customer is expecting the with to be done be today.
I wish I could give negative stars. My order arrived on time, but it was the wrong axle. The axle I ordered and paid for was a 3500 lb drop axle with electric brakes, they sent a bare 3500 lb drop axle. $[XX] difference. I immediately contacted customer service who required pictures of what I received. When I supplied them, they did not respond and even removed my order from their website so I can't track it to see if they're trying to make this right. They won't answer emails either because Ive sent a few. I'll try to get my credit card to refund me since they won't respond.
Piece of cake to install. Pull out the old snapped axle install new axle. Bearings come pregreased.
Wrong axle sent did not need the 4" drop down.

I am sorry to hear that this was not the correct axle set that you are needing. If you are needing an axle with no drop, I would recommend part # e52SR. This axle has most of the same specs as the axle you ordered, minus the drop. Let me get you over to our customer service department for them to look into what would best suite your needs.
Product was exactly what I was after and helps me too get trailer back to work faster.
Not only is it not what I ordered 2 of the TA cayman parts and pieces in the advertisement. It doesn't say anything about coming in parts and pieces. I'm not a mechanic. Now I have to pay somebody to put it together. I think that's very poor business

This axle will need to be welded onto the trailer and then the hubs with the brakes would be installed on the spindle. I do recommend having it professionally welded. We do have a FAQ that can help with installing the hubs and brakes.
Paige was a huge help in getting me what I needed and fast!
Got my new axle in a day and was back on the road.
You will not be disappointed with etrailer!
Good product so far but no instructions at all
fast shipping great pricing
Worked great, fairly easy install, no p roblem!
Got it in all the pieces look great and shipping was fast. Originally said that I would receive it on Tues the 15th and actually got it on Sat the 12th.
Everything good
Shipping was super fast. Price was right but it comes unassembled. I had a few of the brake pieces come off and had to put them back together.
The order was shipped as promised and was complete and of good q1uality
