Your best option for constructing a trailer may be to go for a complete axle kit that includes the axle beam, spindles, hubs with bearings, and seals etc. We offer kits and separate components in various bolt patterns. To help you identify your preferred bolt pattern I have linked an article at right. We also offer trailer wheels with pre-mounted tires to fit the axle kits we offer; a link is included for these as well.
Bear in mind that the tires on your ATV may not be rated high enough in weight capacity to handle the weight of the ATV itself plus that of the trailer. It is important to ensure the axles, hubs, brakes and tires all have the necessary capacity for the combined weight of the ATV and the trailer it will sit on.
You have options in standard beam axles as well as rubber spring-type suspensions from Timbren.
The link at right will take you to our main page for axle assemblies and you can use the filters in the left-hand margin to narrow the results shown based on your bolt pattern and weight capacity. For example, if you want 4-on-4 bolt pattern idler hubs and a 60-inch axle with 2200-lb rating you can choose kit # 20440I-EZ-60. For an axle-less 2000-lb system from Timbren you might consider # ASR2KHDS03 which has 4-inch lift spindles.
