How To Measure Your Trailer Axle
How to properly measure your axle:
Hub Face (HF):
measure from one end of the axle where the lug bolts protrude out from to the other end at the same point. This is the Hub Face.
Spring Center (SC):
Measure from the middle of the spring on one axle to the center of the other spring on the same axle.
There should be about a 15" difference between the Hub Face and the Spring Center measurement. (7-1/2" each side)
