What is the Physical Difference of a 5,200 lbs Axle and a 6,000 lbs Axle?
Question:
Hello, what is the physical difference if any, between a 5200lb axle beam and a 6000lb axle beam? Are both made of the same tube thickness and 43 series spindles?
asked by: Dell
Expert Reply:
The only physical difference of a 5,200 lbs axle item # e63GR and a 6,000 lbs axle item # e73GR is in the custom bend in the axle. This bend creates the zero camber angle for even road to tread contact. Both axles are 3" in diameter so they have the same thickness. As far as spindles go they both fit a item # 25580 inner bearing and a item # 15123 outer bearing.
