Hello Jason,
Since you need the CE Smith Trailer Idler Hub Assembly w/ Case for 3.5K Axles - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized - Pre-Greased # CE13515 you will want the #84 Spindle for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles - 1-3/4" Diameter # TRU64FR.
When swapping out a new spindle it needs to be precise. If you are not an experienced welder then I suggest having someone put it on for you. If you are experienced welder, then as Larry the Cable guy says, "Git-R-Done!"
Looks like you already knew the parts you needed, but just need someone to verify. What kind of boat trailer is this going on?

Hey Jason, did the spindle work out for your trailer setup? I'm curious because it could help others looking to do a similar installation.
