Hello Theodore, thanks for reaching out. We do have a video that shows how to replace an axle. I have provided a link for you below. This is for the Dexter 7K axle # 8327834.

Basically, you just lift the trailer, undo the U-bolts and the axle comes right off. As long as you have a replacement axle with identical specs, the axle swap out will be very easy. Just keep in mind the U-bolts are not meant to be re-used, so you will need a new U-bolt kit for each axle.

I have also included a link to a video that shows how to measure for a replacement axle.

What kind of trailer do you have? Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help.

I purchased the 7k kit. Did see the video of a single axle install. It did help. Just thought there might be one of a dual axle install. I can get by. Tks

@TheodoreM Honestly, I thought we had one for a tandem axle but I looked thru all of our axle video and I guess not. I remember doing a tandem axle swap several months ago, but I guess we did not video that one. It is very much the same process as the single axle swap. Maybe it is time for us to think about making a new video ;) Feel free to reach out anytime you need anything else!
