Question:
I am looking for a Dexter 5200 lb E-Z lube axle for a travel trailer. Currently the trailer has a Dexter 4400 lb axle with HF 86.5 and SC 68.5. The leaf springs mount on top of the axle so the mounts are on top of the axle. Is this something you sell? Thank you

Hi John; we don't have an axle that is an exact match but you can still use the # 8327816. Since the length is correct you can make the rest of it work with new spring seats.
This axle has a spring seat measurement of 71-1/2" so you would have been moving them to match your 68-1/2" measurement regardless of the bottom/top mounting position. All you need to do is add new spring seats to the top matching your current spring center length using # TRSS300.
Since you're moving up in size you will probably need new hubs and brakes as well. You can use # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K for a hub and drum assembly and then # AKEBRK-7-SA for brakes.
