While we do not have an axle which has the 60" spring center you are able to use the Dexter Trailer Axle # 20545I-ST-72-15 and have 2 new Spring Seats # TRSS175 welded on. This will allow you to cut off the spring seats at a 58" spring center and new seats welded to 60" spring centers. The axle includes the 5 on 4-1/2" idler hubs with the bearings and seals needed.

Hey Darrel, we actually have exactly what you are looking for with the part #TRU52FR which is for a 7k axle and is 25-1/4 inch from eye to eye. This is also a 6 leaf spring as well. The spring you referenced would be too short.
