The closest we have is the Dexter Trailer Idler Axle Beam with EZ-Lube Spindles - 72" Long - 2,200 lbs # T20BTR-EZ-7258. This is actually the best fit for your trailer because the hub face to hub face measurement is 72", and the overall length would be closer to the 75-1/2" measurement you referenced and the spindles are 1-1/16". I would measure from the hub face to the other hub face and see if you get 72", in which case this would be a perfect fit. If you don't have hubs, measure about 7-1/2" out from the spring center.

Keep in mind, this axle is rated for 2,200 lbs and we don't have one rated for more that matches this spring center. If you wanted a higher rated axle, you'd need to weld on new spring centers to a higher rated axle.

Hey Bryan, that's a good question. The pricing can definitely be misleading, but I wouldn't use it to judge the quality of the tire. A lot of that comes down to promotions, inventory, and whether you're looking at a tire by itself or…
