Expert Reply:
An axle like # e43SR can be installed on the trailer as long as the spring center length is 74 inches. Since the hub face is an extra 2-1/4 inches your tires will stick out a little further on each side. As long as this doesn't interfere with anything like fenders you'll be just find.
