Hey Jake, we don't have a way to look up what axle your trailer would need based on just the VIN but we can help you determine what you'd need. We would need to know the distance between the spring seat centers (where it attaches to the trailer frame) and the distance from hub face to hub face as well as the weight capacity of the axle and that's all we'd need to know.
