Expert Reply:
All of our axles that have an 89-inch hub face spacing (see diagram, please) also have a spring center spacing of 74-inches. None of our axles has a 76-inch spring center spacing; the nearest ones are either 74 or 78-1/4-inches apart. But we can still help you with a new axle.
You can refer to the linked page to see all of our axles. First select the weight rating of the axle you need. Our 89-inch axles such as # 8327830 are rated for up to 6K. Since you need spring seats in alternate positions all you need to do is have a pair of # TRSS300 welded on.
You will also want to note the bearings in your hubs since they will fit only a specific spindle. You will want to select an axle with spindles that use your same bearings; this will ensure your hubs will fit the spindles on the new axle. The linked article on bearings shows you the most popular ones based on axle weight capacity.
