The Dimensions of the Axle Spring Seat 3 inch Round, item # TRSS300, are 1-7/8 inches wide by 4 inches long. The radius, where the 3 inch axle sits, is on center and the 1/2 inch hole is centered in the part.

Answer 1

A bearing race or cone should fit tightly enough in the hub that it needs to be driven out of the hub with a punch from the back side. If the race is spinning in the hub, either the wrong race was used or the hub bore has been damaged in some way.…

Thankfully, Grand Design actually has some parts info we can reference, unlike any other manufacturer, so I know that your 2019 Grand Design Reflection 28BH does have 5,200 lb axles that measure 86-1/2" hub face to hub face and 68-1/2"…

The easiest way to lift a trailer's height is to install an axle over-under kit. We offer two kits, each made for a specific axle diameter. For a 2-3/8-inch diameter axle use kit #K71-384-00; for a 3-inch diameter axle instead use kit…

In order to make sure you get the correct replacement parts you will want to take a measurement or two. It would be best to measure the spring while the trailer is lifted and weight is taken off the spring. You need the eye-to-eye measurement to make…

To be honest the brakes that were on your Lippert 5.2K axles were probably from Dexter Axle as they are the most common brakes on any trailer. Since your OEM brake controller on your Ram pickup worked with the old brakes it isn't likely that all…

Trailer axles are designed to have the bow in them that you described. This allows the axle to flatten out when it is loaded and have the proper camber. If you have axles that are rated for considerably more than what the trailer will ever have…

We don't have an exact match for all of your measurements but you can use the Dexter Trailer Axle Beam #8327816 as a replacement. This is 86-1/2" long so it will stick out 1/4" more on either side of your trailer, something you…

Answer 9

What you have is an 86" long axle with a 4,400 lb capacity. Since 4,400 lb axles are no longer being produced, you will need an axle with a higher capacity for a replacement. I recommend the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles #e45GR.…

Hey Jaime, yes you can replace your 25-1/4 inch 3,500 lb axle leaf springs with a 5k rated axle spring like the part #e44SR. This will increase the suspension's weight capacity and might make the ride quality a little rougher but it would fit and…

I got in contact with Lippert, and based off the information they gave me the Dexter Trailer Axle Beam with E-Z Lube Spindles #8327816 is the correct axle replacement.

Answer 12

The closest size we have to a 25.5" slipper spring is 24-5/8". Do understand that this may be the correct size for your application since as leaf springs sag and get flatter they also get longer in length. Also the amount of leaves a spring…
