Expediter on your side of the world, They are a trailer part wholesaler so they will more than likely have what you need in stock
1-800-330-1800. I,m pretty sure they sell to the public as well.

My axle is no longer available. Went to a new home today.

That's damn nice of you Nomad, glad to see folks helping other folks.

On another note, easy to build your own, by the spindles and some box tubing and weld her up.

Keebo, what is the trick to getting them perfectly straight? I have had a couple that were off a bit and ate trough tires.

[GCRedfisher]

I just finished a single axle fuel traile, laid about a 4' piece of angle across the sidewalls of the tires and measured to the frame on each end, once both ends and both sides were the same, welded up the hangers and took it for a ride. Pulled true as can be. Hope it helps, it's the poor mans way but it works.

[keebo]

Using the box tubing if you make sure your cut is good on the end the spindle will fit perfectly flush, you have to assure your cut is good and deburred, if the cut is not straight it will be out of alignment; even just a bit will wear tires out. I usally have help with holding in place and tack it on in two spots, then double check it is still flush before welding. Only done a couple but all have pulled true.

[keebo]

and of course you have to mount it on the frame straight as well.
