Question:
Which idler hub with a 6 on 5.5 pattern do I use with this axle? And whats the distance from the trailer frame to the center of the spindle with this model specifically as it obviously has the 4inch lift plus the arm to the spindle. Thanks!

We do have an idler hub with a 6 lug on 5-1/2 inch bolt circle that's compatible with the Timbren # ASR2KHDS03 Axle-less suspension, the part number of the hub is # 84655UC1-EZ, they are sold individually.
The drop of the spindle, measured from the underside of the trailer frame to the center of the spindle is 7-1/2 inches. This includes the lift plus the spindle drop.
I've provided you with a diagram we received from Timbren that shows all the relevant dimensions for you.
