We have a great Article (See Below) that will go over ways to identify your axle. I'm assuming that you are looking for replacement parts for your axle is this correct? The best way to identify what you will need is by pulling apart a hub and getting the bearing information. If you are unable to identify the numbers on the bearings you can measure the spindle and hub's (See picture below). A Digital Caliper # PTW80157 will help you to get these measurements. If you are looking to replace your hub assembly you can also use the caliper to measure your wheel stud pattern as you will need that information as well.

Some examples of the parts we have available are Brake Assemblies # AKEBRK-35-SA, Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K (EZ lube spindles), Bearing Kits # BK2-100 and Bearing Buddy's #BB1980A-SS. If you are able to get me any of the above information on what sizes your particular axle has I can help identify the exact parts you need.
