Review of Dexter Axle Trailer Axles - Leaf Spring Suspension - 8327812 Video

I don't have a way to look up your axle based on the number you gave me but I can help you pick out the correct replacement axle based on a few measurements. First thing you need is the axle capacity. That would be listed on the axle on a…

Yes, you can replace a trailer's round axle with a square axle as long as the weight capacity is appropriate. You will need a new U-bolt kit to connect the axle: 1-1/2 inch square axles #CE23102 1-3/4 inch square axles #175130 for the U-Bolts…

I would be happy to help, but we do not offer any axles with the the spring seat mounted on the top of the axle. There is a work around to this but I will need to know what size axle you are needing for your trailer, as I am unable to determine the…

The Dexter Trailer Axle w/ Electric Brakes - 4" Drop - E-Z Lube #8327812-EB has spindles that drop 4 inches from the center of the trailer axle beam. What this means is that you get an additional 4 inches of clearance from the center of the beam…

We do have a 3,500 lb trailer axle with a 95 inch hub face to hub face measurement, though you'll need to weld on new spring centers because 95 inch axles have 80 inch hub spring center measurements. So for the axle, without any hubs or brakes,…

You measured the drop correctly. It would be from the center of the axle to the center of the spindle. That dimension would be the drop. See picture I attached.

In order to determine which hubs to use on your 2000 Ranger Boat trailer, you will need to first remove the hub assemblies and check the bearing numbers, which should be stamped onto the backs of the bearings themselves. If you are unable to locate…

The Dexter Trailer Axle Beam with 4" Drop E-Z Lube Spindles #8327812 is going to be the closest to the Dexter axle you described. This axle has a 89" hub face to hub face measurement with a 4" drop spindle and underslung design. The…

The Dexter Trailer Axle Beam with 4" Drop E-Z Lube Spindles part #8327812 measures 89" long between each hub face and 74" long between each spring center. It is not offered with 89" between each hub face and 70-1/2" long…

Considering all that has been done so far, I think the first step I would take here is to go with the shorter shackle straps. If you're still getting contact with the trailer frame, I would then take a look at upgrading to a taller equalizer like…

The equalizers in trailer suspension hanger kit #AP233 are 5-3/4 inches long measured from the center of one spring eye to the center of the other spring eye. I have included a picture illustrating this for you.
