Axle Replacement Recommendation for Boat Trailer Torsion Axle
Question:
I have a 1996 Astro boat with bad Procraft trailer I believe, I recently lost my axle and I am need of a new one. The axle has a center in the middle with a measurement of 79 inches from outside to outside frame, it currently had a torsion bar axle with no springs, do you have these?

Expert Reply:
The best option we have for your application is the Timbren Axle-Less system because it comes with it's own suspension system. We don't have any torsion axles so if you went with a standard-type axle you would need to essentially start from scratch. The correct Timbren kit depends on the weight capacity you're needing:
2K - # ASR2000S02
3.5K - # ASR3500S05
5.2K - # ASR5200S01
7K - # TASR7KS01
Attached is a sample installation video for you to check out.
