A stable ride starts with a solid axle. This 95" long trailer axle with electric brakes is rated for 5,200 lbs, giving you the strength needed for steady, controlled towing. The round, 3"-diameter high-strength steel beam has a built-in camber that keeps tire contact even across the tread for smooth tracking and dependable road handling. Electric brakes are already installed, so you get firm, responsive stopping without hydraulic lines or actuators.
Keeping bearings in good shape doesn’t have to be a chore. The straight spindles on this axle feature built-in grease zerks that make lubrication quick and clean. Each hub comes pre-greased with bearings, races, seals, and lug nuts already in place, cutting down on setup time and keeping your hands cleaner. When it’s time for service, just connect a grease gun to the zerk and you’re done.
Getting cargo on and off the trailer is easier when the deck sits lower. The underslung layout has spring seats welded to the underside of the axle so your leaf springs mount below. That setup drops the trailer height for simpler loading and unloading while maintaining a sturdy, balanced stance. The 80" spring-center spacing is pre-welded and ready to bolt up.
Every component is built for strength and tested for safety. The cast-iron hubs and drums measure 12-15/16" diameter x 2-3/8" wide and fit a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern with 1/2"-diameter wheel studs. It’s CSA, QAI, and SAE-N certified to meet performance standards for braking and durability. Each weld is reinforced with a patented process that’s 40% stronger to prevent spindle failure, so the axle stays dependable mile after mile.
This axle arrives with the critical components you need to get rolling—electric brake assemblies, hubs, drums, bearings, races, seals, grease caps, and lug nuts. With 95" hub-face and 80" spring-center measurements, it’s an easy way to replace a worn-out axle or step up to a stronger 5,200-lb setup that’s built to last.
Ratings & Reviews
I ordered two axles to upgrade my trailer capacity to what the frame is rated for, 12,000lbs. The axles have great bearing seats and backing plate studs. The backing plates are fully assembled and ready to connect to the wires already installed into the axle tubes. The hub assembly went smooth and only one set of break shoes needed adjustment. A good buy along with the 5 fully assembled tires and wheels.
Buying the kit complete was a good decision. It showed up early than predicted and having the grease and wires already in place shows your professionalism. I would recommend this product and company to everyone in the market.
Great service, always on time and priced right
Based off of just a quick inspection and part count it looks good to me!
Worrks awesome
Excellent Axles
I replaced the old axles on my trailer. I found these to be excellent quality. The install was not bad. I've taken a couple of long trips maybe 1000 miles one way and loaded. These axles head up perfectly.
I shopped around and found etrailer had the best deal for an axle i needed. My old axle was not an ez lube but the etrailer offering was so that was a great improvement for maintaining the axle!
Had it in 3 days fast!!
Fit perfect easy install
Picture shows complete axle assembly. Received three boxes and an axle with smashed threads
Went together well, perfect replacement. Be sure to measure from spring centers (80" on the nose) and hub faces (95" on the nose). I was suprised when this shipped UPS. I didn't know they would handle something this large/heavy. 3 boxes and the axle. One box has the electric brakes. One box each for the hubs (pregreased). Came with castle nuts, washers and cotter pins and nylocks for the ebrakes. One end of axle was just wraped in plastic and plastic was ripped around circumference of spundle end but threads and zirk were intact. On the other end of the axle it was protected with a rubber boot under the plastic wrap and threads were ok but zirk had been snapped off. Used an easy-out to extract the rest of the zirk out of the axle and replaced with a new one. Zirks are 1/4" - 28tpi. I have no idea what the manufacturer of my trailer is other than Joe Schmoe farmer LOL. But it has two 6 bolt hub axles made in china just like this one and the measurements matched. On one axle the brakes failed, then bearing failed, then hub and wheel sailed off and there was too much damage to the spindle and threads. The spindle can be replaced but chose to get this axle for quick and easy turn around. I then shot both hubs full of grease with an air operated grease gun which took about two tubes of grease. The bearings come prepacked with the blue marine synthetic grease, I shot the hubs with red GLCI 2 once hubs were mounted on the axle and grease cups mounted. Their are two grease cups for each hub, one with removable rubber center disk and one without - you choose. Other related info: Spring bolts were 9/16"-18tpi x 3", I had to snap two off so replaced all four for this axle with grade 5 bolts and nuts and used split ring lock washers. Shackles I bought from here did not come with lock washers so I put 1/2" split ring lock washers under the shackle nuts. Extra hardware all came from McMaster Carr. I did cheat and used a tractor with bucket mounted hitch to lift and lower the trailer tongue :). It was more of a pain to remove the old axle than install this new one, took a couple hours, I am in my 60's. So not bad at all. I have not used the trailer with this new front axle as yet but I have no qualms about doing so. I have noticed the front of dual axles always seems to take a disproportionate more amount of the load no matter what the tongue height or accurate the tire pressure. Just as good an axle as the original.
