We do have a potential option for you. I will start by saying that we do not carry a direct replacement for that axle, as we do not carry any square tube axles. The closest thing we have length-wise is the Dexter Trailer 5.2K Axle Beam # 8327816, which is 86-1/2" long, when measured from hub-face to hub-face. So this may be a bit too long to be a viable option.

A better option is to go with an axle-less setup like the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # TASR35HDS06. This system will bolt directly to your trailers frame and uses no crossmember. So they are highly versatile, the only downside is cost.

If you are looking for more of a direct replacement, it may be worthwhile to contact an axle manufacturer, like Dexter, directly.
