Replacement Idler Hub Needed for 2,000 lb Trailer

Question:

So I am looking for a 3/4 inch idle trailer hub replacement. Do you have any of those available? It is for a 2000lb trailer.

The closest that we have for your application is the Idler Hub # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-1K with a 4 on 4" bolt pattern or the # AKIHUB-545-2-EZ-1K which a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern. These are designed for a 1" spindle which is the standard for a 2,000 lb trailer axle.

If you truly have a 3/4" spindle diameter then you're going to be looking at an older setup for something that's really hard to come by so my recommendation would be to change out your axle to something with modern specs so it's easier to maintain in the future.

Attached is a link to our selection of 2,000 lb axles which includes standard types that you have to measure the spring center and hub face measurements for a replacement or you could use the specialty Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System # ASR2000S01 which bolts right to the trailer frame.

Attached is a review and installation video of the Timbren system for you to check out.
