3500 lb Drop Axle Guidance
Minimum (No Brakes): 14" total (7" overhang per side)
Minimum (With Brakes): 14" total (7" overhang per side)
Maximum Overhang: 18" total (9" overhang per side)
Example for a 75" Hub Face:
Minimum Spring Center (No Brakes): 75" - 14" = 61" spring center.
Minimum Spring Center (With Brakes): 75" - 14" = 61" spring center.
Maximum Spring Center: 75" - 18" = 57" spring center.
For a 75" hub face, the recommended spring center range is between 57" and 61", depending on whether the axle has brakes.
Overhang Summary
Axle overhang is the distance from the hub face to the spring center.
A shorter overhang (wider spring center) increases axle strength and improves load handling.
A longer overhang (narrower spring center) increases leverage but reduces stability and axle capacity.
Match existing spring centers when possible. This information is for guidance only.

Everything fit perfectly, very pleased with the quality and workmanship. I would definitely buy from them again!
Replaced on axle on my tandem boat trailer with one with brakes.. Had spring seats come loose cause my centers weren't available on selections. Local welding shop welded em for $60. Still have to buy a new 7 pin harness and wire up, but happy with product.
Shipping took some time, which is fine. Install was very straight forward even considering my idler axle, and the one I replaced are square. Purchased a U-bolt kit from Amazon, spot on fit on both axle and trailer springs.
Shipping cost on the other hand.... was pert near the cost of the axle. A little expensive. I'm in Oregon and shipping was close to $400. So total cost was just over $800, U-bolt kit $63, so all in around $900. Local manufacturing shop quoted about $1100.
I will say this, the welding shop I took it to for the spring seats, said that they order quite a bit of product from E-Trailer, and Axle Store and have had good experiences. He said that he knows E-Trailer has an absolutely crazy phenomenal warranty program, but wasnt sure about Axle Store. If they haven't had to apply for warranty, maybe that says something, who's to say.
Anyway, besides having to sell a kidney (for shipping) to get my boat back on the road.... to the water..... happy with my purchase, will probably harvest another kidney at some.point and get my idler replaced.
Definitely recommend 👌
Can’t say enough about how easy and perfect this ordering went for my new axel. Ordered online, very easy. All the parameters for this custom length and leaf spring centers were easy to enter and built exactly to specs.
Super easy installation with this new axel. I couldn’t be happier.
These axles are high quality I've seen a lot of junk with poor welds and i cant find one mistake with this axle. Thanks for doing quality work trailer axle store!
Haven't gotten it installed yet but looks nice. Steel looks strong, paint was sprayed clean, and drums look high quality. Will let you know once i drive around a little with it on.
Easy to order and great customer service. I got a quick response to a few different questions I had and my axle shipped fairly fast. Would recommend the trailer axle store to anyone who need a high quality axle.
