In order to replace a trailer axle you will first need to know the weight capacity which can most easily be found on the axle tag sticker. Then, you will need to know the hub face (HF) and spring center (SC) measurements which can also sometimes be found on the axle tag. If not, you will simply measures these yourself. The hub face would be from the face of the hub/drum from end to end and the spring center would be from the center of the leaf spring stack end to end.
The Dexter Trailer Axle Beam part # 7359765 is our most popular option which has a 3,500 lb weight capacity, 80" spring center, and 95" hub face. I have attached a full list of our options below.
