How to Determine Which Replacement Axle is Needed for Karavan LB-2200-70-17-SF-ST Trailer
Question:
Is there any way to know the axle that Id be looking for without measurements if I know the exact trailer model? I have a Karavan LB-2200-70-17-SF-ST and theres a lot of stuff close to what I need, but without knowing the exact axle Im worried Ill get the wrong thing. Thanks for your help!

I've contacted Karavan, and they could tell me that you have a 2200 lb axle, but they unfortunately couldn't tell me anything about a replacement axle.
In order to determine if any of our stock axles would work for you, I'd need to know the hub face to hub face dimension as well as the center to center distance between the spring centers welded to the axle. I would also need to know the wheel bolt pattern of your existing wheel/ tire, assuming you're wanting to reuse them. The diagram I've linked will show what needs to be measured.
If you reply with this information, I'd be happy to check to see if anything we offer would work for you.
