• Recommended Electric-Over-Hydraulic Disc Brake Kit For A 2022 Grand Design Solitude 3740BH
  Hey Michael, Thanks for the serial number of your axle, it made it possible to find the bearings and seal numbers so I could verify what would fit. If you want the best you'll definitely want to go with a DeeMaxx kit like the # DE66AR. This kit includes everything you need from as well as all the smaller hardware to mount your brake lines, which typically isn't included. The only other thing you should need aside from tools to get the job done should be just some high temp grease # L24FR...

• Can A 6,000 lb Leaf Spring Be Replaced With A 7,000 lb Spring Without Replacing Axles?
  Hello Dave, thanks for reaching out. It is possible to replace a 6,000 lb leaf spring with a 7,000 lb spring, as long as the eye-to-eye length is the same. It will not necessarily increase the carrying capacity of your trailer, since the axles are still 6K rated, but a more stout spring should be less prone to breaking. Generally when we see leaf springs repeatedly break, it is because they are overloaded, or because they are being used in rough conditions, like off-roading. Do you know...

• How to Measure for a Replacement Axle, Hubs, and Leaf Springs for a Boat Trailer
  Hey Richard! To replace your axle, I would need to know the hub face to hub face and spring seat to spring seat dimensions. I have attached a picture below to show you these.

• Can Brake Drum Be Added To etrailer e37YR 2K Axle With Idler Hubs?
  Hey there Mohan. The Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 72" Long - 2,000 lbs # e37YR you were looking at already has an idler hub on it which is not setup for brakes. You would need to replace the axle with something like # e78GR with brake flange welded on # 4-34. Then you can add drum brakes to the setup.

  Hello Don, thanks for reaching out. We do offer an axle with a 72" hub face in both a 2,000 lb capacity and 2,200 lb capacity.

• Replacement Axle for a Boat Trailer
  Hey Ed. We do not make axles. In order to recommend a replacement axle, I'll need to know the hub face and spring seat measurements along with the axle's capacity. I've attached a diagram below that will show you where to take these measurements from. As far as matching up to your existing hubs goes, I'll also need to know what size the inner and outer bearings are.

• Does the 2K etrailer Axle Kit Need a Washer Between the Outer Bearing and Axle Nut?
  Hey Dwayne, thanks for reaching out! The Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs # e37YR will not need the washer because it is a 2K axle. If you had something like a 3.5K or up then it would need a washer, but the lightweight ones don't require them. Are you installing the axle yourself?

• Does etrailer Carry 71" Long 2,000 lb Replacement Axle
  Hi Dennis; a 71" axle is not something that we carry. However, you can use an axle like the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 72" Long - 2,000 lbs # e37YR as a replacement. This will stick out an extra 1/2" on either side but it isn't enough of a difference to be a problem. The only other thing that you may need to do is move the spring seats. This axle has a 58" spring center measurement so if yours are different you will have to cut them off and weld on # TRSS175...

• What Info is Needed to Pick Out Replacement Trailer Axle
  Hey Frank, in order to pick out a replacement axle for your trailer there's three pieces of info that is needed. We need to know the length from hub face to hub face, from spring seat center to spring seat center, and the axle's weight capacity. At this time we don't have any axles that are 83 inches in length from hub face to hub face but let me know what dimensions you have and I'll see what I can find.

• 2,000 lb Trailer Axle with 5 Lug Bolt Pattern that Cab Fit 12 inch Wheel
  Hey Vince, the flanges on hubs of the axle part # e37YR are too large in diameter to fit behind a 12 inch wheel. If you went with a Dexter idler hub instead on this axle like the # 8-259-5UC1-EZ it will work since it has a smaller overall diameter. To go that route it would make more sense to get the axle without hubs part # e78GR. These are not made in the USA... We have a similar Dexter axle that is made in the USA part # T20BTR-EZ-7258.

• Wider Axle Options For a Harbor Freight 4 x 8 Folding Trailer Which Allow For Larger Wheels & Tires
  Our narrowest 3,500lb axle is going to be the Axle # e65GR which is 89" from hub face to hub face. To mount this and widen your trailer you will need to modify the trailer which will entail new frame and suspension components. We do have a 72" wide 2,000lb Axle # e37YR which still exceeds the weight rating on your Harbor Freight trailer. This will still likely require some modification as it is about a foot wider than your stock axle. Both axles come with 5 on 4-1/2" idler hubs and will...

• How to Find Replacement Axle for Karavan Boat Trailer
  Hi Gerald; I wasn't able to find anything that corresponds with that axle part number through Karavan. More than likely it is discontinued which is why none of the Karavan parts sites list it with the specs. To find a replacement axle I recommend checking the capacity and measuring the length. The length will be the hub face to hub face measurement. To find the capacity check out the axle tag. If you aren't able to find anything on the axle tag pulling the hubs and identifying the bearings...

• Availability Of Axle To Replace 71" Hub Face 58" Spring Seat 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" 2,000lb Axle
  I have an option that will work for you, but we don't sell any 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" square axles.

• Looking For Replacement Hub That Uses Bower Outer Bearing 09067 and Inner Bearing 14130
  I do have a solution for you, but with you having the 09067 outer bearing and 14130 inner bearings, we will not have anything that will replace your hub. Though you will need to measure a few things to make sure it will work, I recommend replacing the axle.

• What is Difference Between Axles Dexter part # 20545I-EZ-72-15 and etrailer # e37YR
  The two axles you referenced, the Dexter part # 20545I-EZ-72-15 and the etrailer # e37YR are essentially the same axle made by two different companies but the specs are the same. They are both 2,000 lb axles that are 72 inches long with spring center dimensions of 58 inches with idler hubs that have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. Most will argue that the Dexter axles are the highest quality so that would be what I would go with if I were you.

• Looking For Replacement Seals For An Old Utility Trailer That Has 7205E Bearings
  The 7205E number that you found will actually mean you have a 30205 bearing. I have run into this bearing before and, unfortunately, we do not have parts that will match it. This is due to it being an extremely uncommon size, which then makes the spindle uncommon as well. This means the closest seal we will have will be the TruRyde Double Lip Grease Seal # 34823, but it will measure a bit differently at 1.249" for the inner diameter and 1.983" for the outer diameter. You may be able to...
