Product Description
This 7,000 lb single trailer axle kit makes it very easy to upgrade your existing axles on your trailer. Typically, on most smaller trailer axles, the manufactures use the common 1-3/4" double eye springs. If that is your case, this kit allows you to upgrade to 7000 lb axles without any welding or fabrication. Easily unbolt your current springs and drop the axle, put the new heavier duty springs on the new 7k trailer axle, and bolt back into place. Simple and easy.

(2) 6 leaf 1-3/4” wide Double Eye springs
(1) 3” U-bolt kit (1 kit per 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)
