Question:
Hi, I have a triple axle trailer with 1.5 in spindle diameter with a 2x2 square tube between spindles, is there any way to verify what weight rating the axles are? Thank you

The 2x2 inch square axle is likely 3,500 lbs or less capacity. I would need more spindle dimensions or bearing numbers to assist. If you pull a hub and measure at the spindle where the bearings and seal ride using the digital caliper like # PTW80157 I may be able to give you a more specific capacity based on the spindle measurements.
