I have attached a link to our product page for the 3,500 lb trailer axles we offer. All of our beam axles measure 89 inches hub face to hub face.

You can go with an axle that has electric brakes and the hub like part # e43SR. This axle measures 89 inches hub face to hub face and the hub has a 5 on 4-1/2 wheel bolt pattern. This axle has EZ-Lube spindles that have built-in grease zerks that makes it easy to lubricate.

We also have an axle like part # 35545I-EZ-89 that has idler hubs already installed. This axle also has EZ-Lube spindles and the idler hubs have a 5 on 4-1/2 wheel bolt pattern.

Another option is an axle like part # T3584F-EZ-8974. This is also an EZ-Lube axle but it does not have brakes or hubs installed.

We also have axles that have standard spindles like part # 35545E-ST-89, part # 35545I-ST-89, and part # T3584F-8974.

I attached a link to a helpful article that explains how to determine the wheel bolt pattern of your wheels.

We also have universal fit axle-less systems that have a 3,500 lb limit. Those can be found on the product page I attached.

For axles such as #8327812-I the spring center measurement does have to be exact, however, you can weld on new spring seats if you need to. You would need to have a professional welder weld on 2 of #TRSS238 in the proper locations.

I believe you meant a TDE 46245, is that correct? If that's the case, you've got a 3500 lb axle which uses a 10 inch hub/rotor with a 5 on 4-1/2 wheel bolt pattern. You'll want to use the Kodiak #KHR10D hub/rotor as a…
