I recommend the Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # ASR2KHDS03. They are rated for 2,000lbs and include a 4" lift spindle that is also extended for wide tires. The face will sit 8-1/2" from the frame and the centerline of the spindle will be 7-1/2" from the bottom of the frame.
The Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-550-35-EZ-K will give you a 5 on 5" idler hub if you do not want or require trailer brakes. This includes all the bearings, races, lug nuts dust cover and grease seal for one side of the axle.
The Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-550-35-EZ-K will be the hub you need if you are wanting/needing trailer brakes. Two of these will pair with the Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-35-SA. These brakes are self adjusting and will extend the life of your brakes and allow your trailer to stop more evenly.
