I reached out to my contact at Dexter with the information you listed and it appears that you have a 3,500 pound torsion axle that has a hub face length of 94-1/4 inches.
We currently don't have any torsion axles available that would work as a direct replacement so the best option I can provide is with a Timbren Axle-Less Suspension System. For your trailer I specifically recommend the Timbren 3,500 Pound # ASR3500S05.
These are excellent systems that feature fully independent suspension units to allow for a really smooth ride during travel. They can fit any frame width and often eliminate the need for a thru-axle altogether. I recommend watching the attached installation video and checking the frame of your trailer to see if this will work well as a replacement solution.
