Expert Reply:

In order to determine the correct capacity of the Timbren Axle-Less Suspension you need for your dual axle boat trailer you just need to know the GVWR of your trailer or the capacity of your current axles to get the appropriate system.

For example, based on the numbers you gave it seems likely you have a pair of 3,500 axles so you will replace those with 3,500 lb rated axle-less suspension systems.

For that you can use the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System - Straight Spindle Only - 3,500 lbs # ASR3500S05 which accepts Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3,500-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K or the Trailer Hub/Drum Assembly - 3,500-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized # AKHD-545-35-G-EZ-K.

I have added links to video reviews for you to take a look at as well as a link to our selection of Timbren Axle-Less Systems if you need a system with a capacity other than 3,500 lbs.
