I was able to find that your 2005 Haulmark TS6X14DS2 trailer has a 3500 lb axle. What I was not able to find was if you have a torsion axle or leaf spring suspension. If you have leaf springs, I recommend the Dexter axle # 35545E-ST-89 which has spring locations that are 74 inches center to center and hub face to hub face measurement of 89 inches.

If you have a torsion axle, then I recommend replacing your axle with the Timbren Axle-Less Suspension System that uses rubber springs for the suspension. For this system I recommend # A35RS545E. This will use a 2 inch square bar (not included) in the integrated holes to give support to this assembly. This will give better ground clearance than a through axle assembly and comes with the Dexter hubs and brakes.

The closest options we have to your existing axle are 3,500 pound units with a 74" spring seat length, such as the Dexter # T3584F-EZ-8974. This particular axle has an 89" hub length. Do you happen to know this dimension on your current axle? The spring seats can potentially be moved but it will depend on your hub length.
