Hello Don, thanks for reaching out. We do offer an axle with a 72" hub face in both a 2,000 lb capacity and 2,200 lb capacity. The spring seats on our axles are at 58" so you would have to have new spring seats welded on at 61".
For example, the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs # e37YR has a 72" HF, 58" SC and it comes with 5 on 4-1/2" idler hubs.
Then we offer loose spring seats as part # TRSS175. Then for new U-bolts use part # CE23000.
We have leaf springs for 2,000 lb axles like part # e53SR which is 20-3/8" long eye to eye. We would want to have you measure the current leaf spring unloaded and make sure this is a match. If you need a different length of spring just let me know.
Feel free to reach out with any other questions or comments and I am happy to get back to you.
