Our main page for trailer spindles is linked for you. Since your tandem axle trailer is rated for 9500-lbs it uses either 5000-lb or 5200-lb axles.

For a 5K axle we offer # TRU57FR which uses a grease seal with an inner diameter (ID) of 2.24-inches, an inner bearing ID of 1.74-inches and an outer bearing ID of 1.25-inches.

For a 5200-lb axle we have E-Z Lube spindle # TRU37FR which has the same seal and bearing surface dimensions.

Please refer to the items' linked pages for a diagram showing these points on the spindle.

Spindles must be welded on by a trailed welder who has the required jigs to hold the spindle perfectly straight and concentric to the axle. Otherwise you will have issues with trailer tracking and tire wear.
