It sounds like you are looking for a 61" replacement axle for your utility trailer. Although we do not have any axles that are 61" long when measured from hub face to hub face, we do have 60" axles available. All of these axles have a 1-3/4" diameter which is typical for a 2,000 lb axle, and measure 48" spring seat to spring seat.
Assuming your spring seats are 50" apart you would also need to weld on new spring seats to make this work like the Spring Seat for Typical 2,000-lb, Round Trailer Axles # TRSS175. We have axles available with hubs like the # e82GR if you want to replace your hubs as well. If you go this route you will need to match up the bolt pattern with what you have on your existing wheels.
If you want an axle with just the spindles, like the Dexter # T20BTR-6048, you will need to make sure it matches your current bearings. This particular axle uses a # L44649 inner and outer bearing.
I have attached a link with all of our available 60" axles as well as some review videos for your reference.
