If your axles are fine you can replace just the spindle and be totally fine. This is a common enough situation which is why we offer just replacement spindles like the part # TRU97FR that you were looking at.
Trailer spindles must be installed by a qualified professional welder. Spindles must be welded on perfectly concentric or you will have tracking problems. A trailer shop will have the right jigs to allow the spindle to be welded on correctly. view full answer...
You will want to go by the capacity of the axle/trailer and get spindles that will match. So for example if the trailer/axle is rated up to 2,000 pounds using the TruRyde spindle # TRU97FR that you were looking at would work. You will also want to look at the bearings each requires (related parts on each spindle page, see link) and avoid an agricultural spindle because it can be difficult to get replacement parts for those.
Then you will look at the hubs associated with the bearings the... view full answer...
On a number 84 spindle the component that fits on the 1.71 inch diameter section of the spindle would be the seal and would be part # 58846. view full answer...
We do not have the axle you are looking for, but we do have 3,500 lb spindles that may be just what you need.
The part # TRU74FR is an EZ lube spindle with a 3,500 lb capacity. This would fit standard 3,500 lb hubs as well.
Trailer spindles should only be installed by a qualified fabricator with trailer axle experience who has the necessary equipment to square up a trailer spindle. It's not a project for someone who's pretty good at welding since if the spindle is off by just a little... view full answer...
If both the inner and outer bearings are L44643 then you have a BT8 spindle. You can use # R104BT8, # TRU97FR, or # TRU59FR. All three of these spindles are rated for 1,000 pounds by themselves so they would be on a 2,000 pound axle. I have linked videos for all 3 spindles for you.
Please note that installation of a spindle is a precision job that requires someone with experience in welding on spindles. If the spindle is welded on a little off then it can cause tire wear, suspension, and... view full answer...
Since your axle diameter is 3 inch that would mean that your axle capacity is between 5.2k and 7k so for a replacement spindle the EZ Lube Spindle part # TRU37FR would fit and work well. This has a 5 bolt spindle though. view full answer...
I wish we did, but we do not carry any 10k rated trailer spindles. The highest we have is a 7k spindle like part # TRU57FR. This is a standard spindle that could work well on your hay wagon as long as you didn't need more than a 7k capacity. We also carry the hubs compatible like the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 7,000-lb Axles - 8 on 6-1/2 - Pre-Greased # AKIHUB-865-7-2-K.
If you want the axle and not just the spindles, then I recommend the Dexter Trailer Axle Beam with E-Z Lube Spindles... view full answer...
The spindle that is designed to fit the Dexter Trailer Hub Assembly # 84545UC1-EZ is the number 84 spindle.
You would want the TruRyde Trailer Spindle # TRU74FR. view full answer...
Since you have a 3,500 lb trailer axle the correct spindle you'd need is the part # TRU77FR that you referenced. This would match same dimensions as the spindle you have now and also comes with a brake flange. view full answer...
The spindle and hub you mentioned are not compatible with each other.
For the hub part # T4084600042 the spindle you would want is the part # TRU97FR which is a square spindle like you said you were interested in. view full answer...
The Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 4 on 4 - Galvanized # AKIHUB-440-2-G-EZ-1K that you are considering buying is designed to work with BT8 spindles rated at 2,000 lbs, just as the hub is rated at 2,000 lbs. If you need a 1-3/8" diameter spindle, use BT8 Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles - 1-3/8" Diameter # TRU59FR. If you need a 1-1/4" diameter spindle, use BT8 Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles - 1-1/4" Diameter # TRU94FR. For a square spindle, use Square BT8... view full answer...
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... view full answer...
If you can get me more info on the hub I can see which spindle it would fit. If you know the bearing numbers of the hub that would work, or there is a casting number on the hub like what Dexter does that would work. Axle capacity of the trailer will work as well. view full answer...
All of the hubs we carry for a # L44649 straight spindle have a standard "depth". We do not offer anything for a short spindle. The older short hubs that your trailers spindles use are not made any longer so I do not have a hub only option for you.
Your best will be do weld on new spindles and get new hubs. You can use a spindle like the # TRU44FR together with the hubs # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-2K. You will need to make sure the cross tube connecting the two spindles has an inner diameter of... view full answer...
The two spindles that I have to fit a square axle are designed with a square stub diameter of 1.50 inches. The TruRyde BT8 Spindle 1-1/2" Square # TRU97FR, you have referenced is for 2,000-lb axles and the TruRyde Spindle, part # TRU47FR, is for 3,500-lb axles. They use different bearings and seals.
I am including a link to a product page that will list the dimensions on the trailer spindles we have available.
Square axles can be tough to determine capacity. Often times the same spindle... view full answer...
There really should be a flat washer between the outer bearing of your hub and the nut that holds it on. The washer protects the back side of the bearing from the edges and points on the back side of the spindle nut.
The Washer For 1 inch Spindle, # SW1000, is typically used on spindles that have a castle nut, like # 165686, and a cotter pin, # 165649.
A D washer, # 5-23, would be used on a spindle that has a flat side and uses the same castle nut and cotter pin setup.
A Tongue Washer,... view full answer...
New spindles should be welded on only by a professional welder who has experience and the correct jigs for installing spindles perfectly straight and concentric. If not installed correctly the trailer may not track properly and uneven tire wear can occur.
It might be more trouble than it's worth to try and fit a round spindle like the part # TRU24FR in a square tube axle by trimming it. We have a square version of this spindle as part # TRU47FR. view full answer...
When picking out a trailer hub you will need to go with one that fits the trailer spindle exactly. A 1-1/16 would be to big for a spindle with a 1.00 inch diameter.
However, since I don't know where you are measuring I should get ahead of myself. The only way to correct determine what hub will fit your spindle is to measure the spindle where the bearings and seal rides.
In order to do that you can either get the inner and outer bearing numbers from a hub or use a dial or digital caliper... view full answer...
