There typically aren't any part numbers stamped onto the trailer spindle that can be used for identification. There are however numbers stamped onto the hub most times which can be used for identification. The TDE46210 tells me you have a 3,500…
That's a very good question, we tend to be extra cautious and say to use 10 gauge wire because that would be more than enough. When you get into longer trailers that will end up using a lot of wire the heavier gauge wire becomes more necessary.…
Yes, I am and thanks for the information. It looks like your Reliable 2700lb Torsion Axle 08351 has a 1-1/16" x 1-1/16" spindle. I have two options for replacements and which one you need is going to be determined by how big your PWC…
