Determining Axle Capacity for 2 inch Square Axles
Published 06/17/2019 >
Question:
Thank you for your response. The bolt pattern is five 1/2" studs on a 4.5" bolt circle. The spindles are stepped, 1 3/8" down to 1 1/16". I hope this helps.

I wish it was possible to know the capacity just off of the info you listed. Square axles don't have standard capacities. You might have best luck if you can get me more info on the hubs of the axle. Like bolt pattern, bearing numbers, etc.
