How to Obtain a Custom Trailer Axle

Question:

I would like to purchase an axle like your T20BTR-6048 BT9 spindles with 4 on 4inch hubs but need a hub face to hub face dimension of 63inch and a spring center to center dimension of 53. Can you get such an axle for me?

The compatible 2K 'off the shelf' axles we carry would have a 60 or a 72 inch hub face dimension or a 48 or 58 spring center dimension. You'll need a custom axle, which we don't carry.

If you'd care to reply and provide your city, state and zip code, I'd be happy to direct you to a local Dexter Axle distributor that can order an axle for you.

Unfortunately we don't have any standard thru axles available that match those specs. Another option is a Timbren AxleLess System like # ASR2KHDS01, which bolts to the frame and is compatible with any width. Otherwise your best bet will be to check with a local trailer shop or fabricator to see if one can be made.
