Expert Reply:
To provide you with the correct 6,000lb axles for your yard trailer I would need to know the following measurements from your current axles:
-Hub face to hub face measurement (see picture below)
-Spring center to spring center dimension (see picture below)
For example the etrailer Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles - 89" Long - 6,000lbs # e23GR has an 89" hub face to hub face measurement and 74" spring center to spring center measurement.
Once I have this information I can put together the correct axles, wheels, and tires for your yard trailer.
