Trailer Axle Recommendation Where Trailer has 48 inches Between Spring Seat on Center
Published 12/15/2015
Question:
Well I got the measurements as instructed but the dont match any product offerings. Hub flange to flange was 59 inches, spring inside to spring outside was 48 inches. Axel Was 2 inches sorta square. Should I go to 60 inch or 57.5?

An axle like the part # 20545I-EZ-60-10 will technically fit your trailer since the spring seat dimensions are the same, but each wheel on your trailer will set out an additional 1/2 inch compared to the old axle. Most likely that wouldn't be a problem but you would still need to check fender clearance if applicable.
