This trailer will have an axle rated between 2,000 lbs and 2,200 lbs. You may need to take a couple of measurements to find out what size axle you need. I would first try to find the axle model and its rating on the axle. You should be able to find this information by taking a closer look at your axle. If you cannot find this information on the axle, you can take some axle measurements. These measurements are the hub face to hub face and spring center to spring center. For example, the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 60" Long - 2,000 lbs, part # e82GR, has a hub face measurement of 60" and a spring center measurement of 48". These measurements are necessary because there is not a database that has this information based on your trailer model. We use these measurements to determine what axle will fit your trailer.

There is another axle option, the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System - Spindle w/Brake Flange - Regular Tires - 2,200 lbs, part # ASR1THDS01. The Timbren axle will be bolted or welded on to your trailer's frame.

I have included product description links and a video demo links below.
