Question:
I have tandem 4400 lbs axles in my 16 Keystone Laredo Fifth Wheel. Serial number 131086620. No one in my area has parts for this. What 5200 lbs axle can I bolt directly in?

Expert Reply:
I do not have the ability to pull an OEM build sheets to see what parts they installed at the factory so we will need to identify what axles you have installed outside of just the weight rating. I have linked a couple help articles that walk through how to determine the hub face measurement, spring centers and important points to best identify a replacement length.
For a 5,200 lb. axle, I prefer the Dexter Trailer Axles with E-Z Lube spindles that come complete with electric brake assemblies, hubs, drums, bearings, races, seals, and mounting hardware.
For a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern and hub-face-to-hub-face length of:
- 86-1/2" - # 8327816-EB
- 89" - # 8327820-EB
- 95" - # 6340624-EB
