Needing Replacement Spindle for 1993 Jackson 3 Horse Slant Trailer

Expert Reply:

To recommend the correct replacement spindle, I'll need some more information.

I'll need the axle capacity, as well as the reference numbers from the inner and outer bearing and the grease seal. If you cannot get the reference numbers, I'll need you to measure the diameter of the spindle where the inner and outer bearings ride, as well as the diameter of the spindle where the grease seal rides and the hub bore diameter where the grease seal installs. These measurements need to be precise, so a digital caliper is recommended. A ruler or tape measure wouldn't provide a high enough level of accuracy. I've provided a photo showing exactly where the measurement needs to be taken.

Keep in mind, that welding a replacement spindle is a highly specialized task that not just anybody can do correctly, and is not a do-it-yourself type task. The spindle needs to be welded perfectly square, or the trailer will never track correctly.
