Round trailer axle beam measures 89" from hub face to hub face (when hubs - sold separately - are mounted) and 74" from spring center to spring center.

Specs:
There are multiple ways to measure the length of an axle beam, but the hub-face-to-hub-face and spring-center-to-spring-center lengths are the most accurate. Hub face (A) refers to the length of the axle measured from the base of one wheel stud to the base of the wheel stud on the opposite side of the axle (when hubs are mounted on the beam).
The spring center (B) is the approximate width of your trailer. It is measured from the center of the spring seat on one side of the axle to the center of the seat on the other. This axle beam comes with the spring seats welded on.
Another helpful measurement to have is the flange-to-flange (C) length, which is measured from the outside of one brake flange to the outside of the one opposite. This length may be easy to obtain if you are replacing an axle, but it's important to note that this measurement is not the preferred method for determining which axle will best fit your trailer.
If you are replacing your trailer's axle, you should be able to figure out which type you need by determining your trailer's capacity, the bolt pattern of your wheels, the brake type and the aforementioned lengths.
Dexters are made of high-strength steel and come with spindles and spring seats welded on. The spring seats are attached to the underside of the axle so that the leaf springs (sold separately) can mount beneath the axle. The result of this underslung design is a trailer that rides a bit lower for quick and easy loading and unloading.
Each axle is manufactured to create a certain camber angle. This ensures that the angle of the wheels is correct for your towing needs. Because the primary concern when towing is maintaining controlled, in-line movement, each axle is made so that your trailer's tires will run along the pavement evenly, with contact across the width of the tread. The result is excellent straight-line acceleration for steady, in-line tracking. You might notice the bend near the center of the axle; this is what ensures the proper camber angle. Having the center ride a bit higher and the sides of the axle bent lower allows the axle to give just enough to compensate for the load.

I was happy with the Product
Very nice product
Haven’t put it on but it’s longer overall but shorter spring center so it will be tricky to get it done correctly and so that it is angled or crooked.
Fit as expected. Good quality
Bolted right in.
Slightly different than original but fit.
Recommend that shackles be changed at same time.
Outstanding customer service and very good products at good prices. Shipping was super fast

Was having trouble locating an axle assembly for my Carry-On utility trailer. Got the part number off the old axle and was able to find the EXACT axle from etrailer.com at a really good price. Ordered with PayPal and received it within 3 business days. No struggle, no hassle. Very simple and easy to use website for all of your trailer needs!!!
Stacy of etrailer was fantastic. I did not know much about trailer repair parts but Stacy walked me through explaining the parts names and usage for the items I needed and when I checked other sites they did not have my products nor did they ship for free. Great experience!
very nice .handled well. I didn't like the position of the mount box ... I thought it should be on both sides. For me, since I created a custom trailer for a dinghy. The mounts when installed properly, sat to low. So, it worked for on the reverse but that meant the cam was reverse.
I haven't received it yet and don't have a tracking number that I know of
Iam very satisfied with the axle and hubs. It handles my loads with no problems. Great quality!!!
I replaced both axles and tough lock and I also put a Jack on my trailer i purchased theses parts from etrailer they were a perfect fit i really like the parts it was easy to order from etrailer the people i dealt with were really helpful if i had any questions i will use etrailer in the future for my trailer needs I would suggest to anyone working on a trailer weather it is yours or not use etariler for your patrs
