Axle Dimensions
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.
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.
etrailer Axles
etrailer axles 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.

Thoroughly Tested for Safety
This hub-and-drum assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This assembly has also been tested by QAI Laboratories for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.
Determining the Bolt Pattern
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: 8 on 6-1/2 means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: 5 on 4-1/2 means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.
- If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
- If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
- If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
- If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

The axle shipped an hour after I ordered it and showed up two days later. All measurements were spot on and I had no issues installing it. As long as I don’t have any tire wear or hub issues in the future it has five stars, else I’ll change my review.

- How To Choose the Correct Replacement Axle for a Lowe Boat TrailerIn order to choose the correct replacement axle for a trailer you'll first want to start with the weight capacity. The weight capacity can be found on the axle tag in the center of the beam. Then, you'll need to measure the hub face (center of hub face to center of hub face) and spring center (center of spring center to center of spring center). This will then give you the info needed to pick out the correct replacement axle for your trailer. I have also attached a video I did to help others...

view full answer... - Info Needed to Pick Out Replacement 7k Axle for TrailerWhen picking out an axle for a trailer you'll need to know the overall length of it from hub face to hub face as well as the distance between the spring seat centers to pick out correct size. I also attached a link to a page with all of the 7k axles we carry. If you don't see the size you need you'd need to find a local trailer shop to you who can order in the correct specced axle.
view full answer... - Is Downward Bend in Trailer Axle SafeStandard axles, like the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs # e65GR, have a slight bend upward so that when you have the trailer loaded the axle is straight. If the axle becoming straight is the slight bend you're talking about then this is completely normal. If the axle is actually bending downward then it was either installed upside down or it has been compromised and is not okay to use. If you can let me know the hub-face and spring center measurements for your axle I can see if we have a...

- What Replacement Axle will Work on My Axle with a 5 on 4-1/2 Lug Pattern?I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, given the age and the fact that the bearings do not link to a specific axle, I recommend an entirely new axle for your ~1964 Ford Fairline trailer. For example, I recommend the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 89" Long - 3,500 lbs # e65GR. This axle has a 5 on 4-1/2 lug pattern as well. I went ahead and linked all of our axles that have 5 on 4-1/2 lug patters for you to browse. In order to find a compatible axle, you will...
view full answer... - How to Change Spring Center on e65GR Trailer AxleIn order to change the spring center on the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs # e65GR you will need to cut off the existing spring seats. Once they have been removed, you will need to have # TRSS238 welded on to match your 72" measurement. If you have some kind of adjustable bracket I do not recommend using it. There should be no way for the leaf springs to move horizontally along the axle aside from moving the spring seat.
view full answer... - Replacement Axle for E12RB Econ TrailerFrom what I was able to find about your E12RB Econ trailer it looks like you have a 3,500 lb axle. You will need to verify the capacity. In order to choose the correct replacement, you will need the capacity as well as the hub face to hub face measurement. See the attached picture that shows where to measure. If you find that your current axle measures 89" and has a 3,500 lb capacity you could use the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs # e65GR you were looking at. If you can match up the spring...

- Replacement Axle For Utility Trailer With no Hub That FitsThere are no hubs with the bearing sizes you mentioned, so to get new hubs you'll have to replace your axle. I know that stinks to hear, but there's unfortunately just no way around it. In order to choose the correct replacement axle for your trailer you will need to know the dimensions of your current axle's hub face to hub face and spring center to spring center; I have added a link below to a video which shows you how to measure. The other thing you need to know is the weight capacity...
view full answer... - Does Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs e65GR Come With U-BoltsThe Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs # e65GR does not include U-bolts so you will need to purchase them separately. For a kit that will fit this axle and also comes with the U-bolt plates I recommend using the CE Smith U-Bolt Kit for Mounting 3,500-lb, Round Trailer Axles # CE23002.
view full answer... - How to Find Out How Much a 14 Long Single Axle Trailer Can HaulYou'll want to look at the weight rating sticker at the front of your trailer for that info. On e of the numbers should say what the empty weight is of the trailer, one should say what the load capacity is, and one should have the "GVWR" which is how much the weight of the trailer and its cargo can be at max. Some people will look at the sticker on the middle of the axle which is a good way to estimate the load rating if your trailer doesn't have that sticker on the tongue for whatever...

Our shortest 3,500lb standard Axle # e65GR is 89" wide from hub face to hub face. The Timbren system above will attach to the trailer frame and will eliminate your trailers ability to fold up since you will need to remove the portion of the trailer with the spring hangers.

Manufacturers use whatever axle they have on hand that day, so there's really no reliable database for this information. You'll need to check the axle beam for an axle tag, and sending me a picture of that would be the easiest way for me to find you an exact replacement. If the tag is missing which is very possible due to the age of your...

- Diameter of 3,500 lb Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs e65GRYes, the diameter is indeed 2-3/8 inches for the 3,500 lb axle you asked about, which is the following part number: - Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 89" Long - 3,500 lbs # e65GR So they will work with U-bolts that fit 2-3/8" diameter axles like part # CE15286GA.
view full answer... - Is There a 3,500 lb Axle That is 89 Inches Long With Idler Hubs With 5 on 5" Bolt PatternYes, though you'll just need to get the axle and hubs separately. What you will need is the following: - Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles - 89" Long - 3,500 lbs # e38GR - Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3.5K Axles - 5 on 5 - Pre-Greased # AKIHUB-550-35-EZ-K
view full answer... - Replacement Hubs And Axles For A 2015 Keystone Hideout 27DBS Travel TrailerI can definitely help point you in the right direction. Axles and hubs are not custom fit, so we do not have a way to know axle/hub specs just by looking up a year, make and model. If only it were so easy right? That being said, the online owners manual for a 2015 Keystone Hideout 27DBS shows a GVWR of 7,865 lbs and a body width of 96". So it stands to reason that you likely have a pair of 3,500 lb axles underneath. Our 3.5K axles come in either a 89" long # e43SR, or a 95" long # 7359765-EB....
view full answer... - Replacement Axle For Yacht Club Jet Ski Trailer With 89" Hub Face & Idler Hubs 5 on 4-1/2" While we do not offer a square axle we do have the Round Axle # e65GR which will fit your trailer. This has the 89" hub face to hub face and idler hub with 5 on 4-1/2" pattern you are needing. The spring center to spring center is 74" or you can have 2 new Spring Seats # TRSS238 welded on at the correct mounting width for your springs. You will need the U-Bolt Kit # CE23002 to install these axles since they are 2-3/8" round.
view full answer... - Replacement Axle and Leaf Springs for Pace American Enclosed TrailerFinding the correct replacement axle and leaf springs will require measuring and knowing your axle capacity. 2,990 lbs is not a typical axle capacity so I'm assuming that is the GVWR of the trailer. Try checking on the axle to see if you can identify it based on the axle tag. If not, you can measure the diameter or check the bearings to try to find the capacity. Once you have the capacity, measure from hub face to hub face to get the axle length. I have attached a video below which shows...

One is the compatible wheel size. The etrailer axle works with 13" - 15" wheels while the Dexter axle works with 13" - 17-1/2" wheels. The other is the warranty. The etrailer axle comes with a limited lifetime warranty and lifetime technical support from etrailer.com, while the Dexter has a 2-year warranty. Aside from this they are virtually identical. If you have wheels that are larger than 15" I would...

I recommend swapping out your axle to something more current that you'll be able to easily find service parts for, like bearings. To choose the correct replacement axle we'll need to find out the weight rating of your current axle as well as the spring-center and hub-face dimensions. For...
view full answer... - Installation of Idler Hub on etrailer e65GR Trailer AxleThe # e65GR uses hub assembly # AKIHUB-545-35-K. I have attached an installation video of the hub below. Since the hub is pre-greased that means the bearings are already packed so you can ignore those steps. You will still want to add additional grease as part of the installation which can be seen in the video. The base type is lithium complex so you can use something like the # L11390.

You can mount the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs # e65GR in an overslung position by using the Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-384-00. This will give you the additional height you are wanting.
