Hey Johnny, thanks for the information! The Trailer Idler Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles item # e48GR is going to match your dimensions perfectly. It's a 2,000 lbs axle, with a 60" hub face, and spring seats mounted at 48" on center. Like all of our replacement axles, this one is an underslung but I have the parts you'll need to mount it under your trailer's leaf springs for a overslung orientation.

What you'll need to do is install two of the Spring Seats item # TRSS175 on the opposite side of the axle. This will give you a mounting point to use the U-Bolt Kit item # APUBR-10 to attach the axle to your leaf springs.

These U-bolts are 4-1/4" long, which is the longest we have for a 1-3/4" diameter axle. It is highly recommended to replace the U-bolts because they are not designed to be retorqued after the initial installation.

What kind of trailer do you have and what lug nut pattern are your wheels?
