Thank you for the information! According to my contact at Dexter Axle you have a 3,500 lb axle with a hub-face measurement of 96.60". We have the Dexter Trailer Axle Beam with E-Z Lube Spindles # 7359765 which has a hub-face measurement of 95" but you'll need to check and see if the spring-center measurement of 80" will work for your trailer (see attached photo). If not you can have a qualified welder cut off and weld on new spring seats with part # TRSS238.

This axle is also available with idler hubs as part # 7359765-I as well as an electric brake setup as part # 7359765-EB, both of which use a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern.

The options mentioned above are for standard leaf-spring applications. If you happen to have a torsion axle with the moving arm then you can use a Timbren Axle-Less solution instead. This is available as a spindle-only with part # ASR3500S05, an idler hub with part # A35RS545, or the whole brake kit with part # A35RS545E.

Attached are some videos for you to check out.
