Replacement 3,500 Pound Axle With 68-1/2" Spring Center for 2018 Grand Design Imagine Travel Trailer
Question:
Hi, I have a 2018 Grand Design Imagine travel trailer with 3500# axles that have a 68.5 SC length. I cannot find a replacement axle with 68.5 SC on your website. Is there one? Got a bent axle that I need to replace.

The spring center length on your current axle does not matter when it comes to finding a replacement. The most important piece of information is the length of the axle, which is the hub face to hub face measurement. As long as the hub face measurement matches up you can adjust the spring center by cutting off the existing spring seats and welding on # TRSS238.
If your hub face measurement is 89" then you could use the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles - 89" Long - 3,500 lbs # e38GR. If your measurement is 95" you can use the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles - 95" Long - 3,500 lbs # e68GR instead.
If you are unable to find a replacement axle that is the correct length your only option would be to switch to the Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - Straight Spindle - Regular Tires - 3,500 lbs # TASR35HDS04. This system fits any frame width and would replace your axle and suspension system on your trailer.
