Replacement Trailer Axle with 65-1/2 Inch Spring Center Measurement
Question:
So from center to center of the spring is 65.5inch but can not find a replacement axle. Its on a 1994 terry travel trailer. 27x. 4inch axle. Where is the best place to look?

I do have an option for you but we currently do not have a standard trailer axle with a distance of 65-1/2" from the center of each spring seat. Instead, I recommend taking a look at the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System part # ASR5200S01. This system will actually replace the axle and leaf sprigs with a set of rubber aeon springs that will do a much better job of absorbing road shock and support the trailer's load. This system has a 5,200 lb capacity but higher capacities are available if needed.
If you have brakes then you can use part # 23-325 for the right hand backing plate, part # 23-324 for the left hand backing plate, and part # 8-201-5UC3 for the drums if you have wheels with a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern. I have attached a review video of this system for you as well.
