What Spindle Should be Used to Fit in Axle Tubing of 1-7/16 inch And 2,000 lb Capacity
Question:
Trying to make a small 2000 LB axle- can I use 13 gauge 1/8inch or 3/32inch tube thickness round tubing that I have? What spindle will I need for the inside diameter being 1 and 7/16 inch?

Expert Reply:
The best spindle option we have is the 2,000 lb axle spindle part # TRU94FR which has an outer diameter of where it would install in an axle of 1.25 inches. As far as the diameter of tubing to use for the axle we really can't recommend that and be able to ensure you'd have the capacity you'd need.
