Recommended Axles for Classic Camping Trailer Measurements

Based on the 66 inch on center frame measurement there isn't a good axle fit for a through axle based on the spring seat locations needed. My recommendation for a custom fit is the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System w Electric Brake Hubs - Straight Spindle - 3,500 lbs # A35RS545E.
This system will mount directly to your trailer frame and uses a 2 inch square bar (not included) between the sides utilizing the integrated holes in the assemblies to give the strength needed. These are able to be used in tandem applications and will give you better ground clearance than traditional axles. I've attached some videos and an article to assist.
