Question:

Looking for spindle and hub for ice house trailer. The spindle will go thru a 2x3 steel tube. Looking at the Item # TRU74FR for ease of alignment. Open to suggestions. Like to use 14 or 15inch wheels. House should be under 1000 lbs. Thank You

All of our trailer spindles are shown on the linked page, but none of these has a stub end to fit 2 x 3-inch tubing. All are either round like # TRU74FR or square like # TRU47FR.

For a fabrication project like yours a better solution may be a bolt-on axle-less suspension kit from Timbren, such as # A12RS440, which is rated for 1200-lbs and which includes idler hubs with the 4-on-4-inch bolt pattern. Bearings, races and seals are included with hub.

All Timbren axle-less kits and beam axle kits are linked for reference. These are offered with or without hubs.
