As you may have noticed, the highest capacity spindle we carry is for a 7,000 lb axle, # TRU37FR. Your best bet is to source the spindles for a 10,000 lb axle through a local trailer shop or dealer.

If are able to source the spindles, we do have hubs for 10,000 lb axles. I'll list them below:

# 8-430-5UC3 - Dexter Hub Drum for 9K to 10K axles manufactured after July 2009 (for non ABS brakes)
- uses inner bearing # 387A, outer bearing # 25580 and oil seal # 10-51

# K08-288-90 - Dexter Hub Drum for 9K to 10 K axles manufactured before July 2009
- uses inner bearing # 387A, outer bearing # 25580 and oil seal # 10-51

# 8-288-3UC1 - Dexter Idler Hub for 9K to 10K axles manufactured before July 2009
- inner bearing # 387A, outer bearing # 25580 and oil seal # 10-51

# 8-214-5UC1 - Dexter Idler Hub for 10K axles
- inner bearing # 395S, outer bearing # 387A and oil seal # 10-56

# 8-214-5 - Dexter Idler Hub for 10K axles (does not include bearings, races, seal, oil cap or lug nuts)
- inner bearing # 395S, outer bearing # 387A and oil seal # 10-56
