Hey Loy, thanks for reaching out. The only difference between the # e35SR axle and the # 7461121-EB axle is the brand. The # e35SR is our etrailer brand which is made by AxleTek, and the # 7461121-EB is made by Dexter.

Dexter parts are generally priced higher than other brands. They are very good quality but, in a sense, you are paying extra for an established brand name. In my experience, the AxleTek parts are in the same category as Dexter quality-wise. So, doing the # e35SR is a great way to get a new axle assembly and save some $$$.

What kind of trailer are you servicing? Have you confirmed the 6,000 lb capacity and 95" hub face will fit your trailer?

I'm pretty sure they're 6000 lb axles. When I bought it they said it is rated for 12k lbs. I did confirm the 95" hub face & the 80" spring center. Would there be any benefits for me to replace them with 7000 lb axles instead of the 6000 lb ones?

@LoyC Not really. Adding a 7K axle would not necessarily increase the carrying capacity of the trailer since other components like the frame, tires, wheels, coupler etc.... are likely rated similarly to the max capacity of the two 6,000 lb axles. If it were my trailer I would stick with 6K and I would not hesitate to use the etrailer brand axles.
