Replacement Axle That is 60 Inches From Hub Face to Hub Face

Question:

I have a current hub face to hub face measurement of 47-1/2” I’m wanting to increase length by 10” to 12” my question is do you make a axle in the low 60” range ? I realize that I’ll most likely have to reweld leaf spring carriage. Thanks

While we do not make the axles and just sell them, we do carry some axles which measure 60 inches from hub face to hub face and 48 inches from spring center to spring center (the next shortest is 72 inches).

You have options depending on if you want the axle to come with idler hubs or no hubs, standard or EZ-Lube spindles, and a 2,000 lb or 2,200 lb capacity.

For example, the Dexter Idler Trailer Axle # 20545I-EZ-60-10 has EZ-Lube spindles, idler hubs with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern and a 2,200 lb capacity.

On the other hand, the Dexter Trailer Axle Beam # T20BTR-6048 has standard spindles, does not come with hubs, and has a 2,000 lb capacity.

I have added a link to a video review of these axles as well as a link to our entire selection of 60 inch axles.
