Can 89 Inch Axles With 74 Inch Spring Centers Fit 74-1/2 Inch Spring Center
Question:
Im looking for a new 64inch axle for my trailer, but spring centers arent exactly 74 in. My current spring centers are actually 73 and 1/2 in, so its very close. How much wiggle room do I have when it comes to that?

You'll be perfectly fine going with a 74 inch spring center to spring center axle with 74-1/2 inch spring center. That said we don't have 64 inch hub face to hub face axles with 74 inch spring centers, only 89 inch hub face to hub face and 74 inch spring centers. There are a few different options depending on the axle capacity you need:
- 3,500 lbs: Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles # e38GR
- 5,200 lbs: Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles # e55GR
- 6,000 lbs: Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles # e23GR
