Single stub-end axle kit for building or repairing a light-duty trailer axle assembly. Designed for welding to axle tubing using a 1.50" square spindle tail shaft. Commonly used on utility trailers, side-car trailers, and custom fabricated builds.
Rated at 1,000 lbs per wheel (2,000 lbs total axle capacity). This spindle does not include an EZ Lube grease zerk.
A stub spindle kit is used when fabricating a new axle or replacing a damaged spindle end. The square tail shaft must be welded to compatible axle tubing. Proper weld penetration and alignment are critical to bearing life and load performance.
Capacity rating is based on correct installation, matched bearings (L44643 inner & outer), and appropriate trailer load distribution. Axle tube is not included.
