How to Make 7,000 lb Underslung Axle Into Overslung Axle

Question:
I need an overslung 7000 lb axle, not finding them

Expert Reply:
We do have a way to very easily convert an underslung axle into an overslung axle, but do not offer any overslung.
Instead, you can use the Dexter Trailer Axle Beam with E-Z Lube Spindles - 7,000 lbs # 8327864 (which measures 94" hub face to hub face and 79" spring center to spring center) or # 8327834 (which measures 95" hub face to hub face and 80" spring center to spring center) and add the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-385-00 which moves your trailer's leaf springs to the top of your axle.
If you are looking for a replacement axle for your trailer just keep in mind you will need to match your axle's hub face to hub face and spring center to spring center measurements.
I have added a link to a video review for you of the over/under kit to check out.
