There is not a Dexter axle with those measurements, so the only option we can offer is an axle-less system from Timbren. These are are simply bolted or welded so you do not have to worry about finding an axle that meets any specific measurements, and for a 3,500 lb axle you can use the following:

- Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - 2" Lift Spindle - Standard Tires - 3,500 lbs # TASR35HDS07

The # TASR35HDS07 also give you an improved ride compared to a traditional through-axle. The reason for that is the Timbrens aren't connected by an axle beam, so they work independently, meaning if there is a bump on one side of the road it won't rattle your entire trailer. The system also has progressive springs built in which are shock absorbers that allow a much smoother, more comfortable ride than the leaf springs found on standard axles.

Then for hubs, the correct fit for the spindle on this Timbren system is the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K.
