TRAILER AXLE BEAMS
In order to replace a sprung axle beam properly, the following information is needed;
-bearing numbers or a specific hub number (often on the face of the drum or back of hub) which
tells us if your hubs will fit our axle and an approximate capacity
-length of axle, whether it be track (center of tire to center of tire), hub face, brake flange to brake
flange, or even an overall tip-to-tip dimension allows us to figure what's being replaced
-straight or drop axle ?
-size of tubular or square axle being replaced which determines if new U-bolts are needed
In order to replace a torsional axle beam properly, the following information is needed:
-bearing numbers or a specific hub number (often on the face of the drum or back of hub) which
tells us if your hubs will fit our axle and an approximate capacity
-length of axle, whether it be track (center of tire to center of tire), hub face, brake flange to brake
flange, or even an overall tip-to-tip dimension allows us to figure what's being replaced
-an "outside of bracket to outside of bracket" dimension on the torsion axle being replaced or out-
side of frame to outside of frame dimension of the trailer being outfitted (should be same length)
-how do the axle mounting brackets allow the axle to be mounted to the frame ?
-what is the "starting angle" of the axle torsion arms (position of spindles) relative to the trailer
frame, and is that angle up or down ?
NOTES:
1) "SF" in part # denotes straight axle
2) "DF" in part # denotes drop axle (4" drop center of beam to center of
spindle)
3) "TF" in part # denotes a
T
ORFLEX axle which has a steel torsion bar
surrounded by 4 natural rubber cords encased in the main structural
member of the axle beam, acting as its means of suspension (no leaf
springs need to be used).
The beam attaches directly to the trailer frame
using brackets and the "Spring Center" column gives the "outside of
brackets" dimension, which must match up to the trailer frame. Starting
Angle refers to the position of the spindle in reference to the trailer frame
without a load and is important for clearance purposes (tires & wheels,
loaded vs. unloaded, etc). TORFLEX axles are square, not tubular.
4) Axles come complete with brake flanges, loose spring seats, axle nuts, & cotter pins
5) * denotes EZ-lube option is available in stock by adding "EZ" to end of number
