Overview
This replacement torsion arm spindle kit is designed for compatible Universal Group FlexiRide torsion axle systems. It is commonly used when servicing or replacing a damaged, worn, or compromised torsion arm spindle on compatible 3,500 lb FlexiRide axle setups.

R&P Service Insight
Torsion axle spindle fitment is measurement-sensitive. Matching the axle rating alone is not enough; the spline count, bearing journals, seal surface, and mounting hardware should all be verified.
- FlexiRide Application: Designed for compatible Universal Group FlexiRide 3,500 lb torsion axle systems.
- Critical Fit Check: Confirm the 59-spline configuration before installation.
- Hardware Included: Includes the listed Grade 8 cap screws, thru-hardened washer, tang washer, spindle D-washer, and spindle castle nut.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Intended for compatible 3,500 lb Universal Group FlexiRide torsion axle applications where the measurements and spindle configuration match.
Axle System: FlexiRide torsion axle with 59 spline teeth and standard 4-bolt brake flange.
Installation Notes: Verify spline count, approximate mounting bore, bearing sizes, seal reference, axle nut thread, and brake flange style before installation.
Performance Insight: A properly matched replacement spindle kit helps restore serviceability to compatible FlexiRide torsion axle assemblies without replacing unrelated components.
Brand & Fitment Note
Selling Brand: R&P Carriages / FlexiRide-compatible service kit.
Application Reference: FlexiRide and Universal Group names are used to describe the intended axle system compatibility.
What This Means: This listing is for a replacement torsion arm spindle kit for compatible FlexiRide axle applications where the specifications match.
Before Ordering: Verify spline count, spindle dimensions, bearing references, seal size, axle nut thread, brake flange style, and included components before installation.
R&P Repair Insight
This type of spindle kit should be matched carefully against the original part. If the axle has been modified, damaged, or previously repaired, confirm the current installed dimensions rather than relying only on the trailer year, model, or axle rating.
- Spline Count: Confirm the torsion arm uses 59 spline teeth.
- Bearing Match: Verify the common 1-1/16" outer bearing and 1-3/8" inner bearing references match your hub setup.
- Seal Surface: Confirm the grease seal reference and seal surface before reusing or replacing the hub.
