| Category | Details |

| Axle Fit | Applications requiring two 8,000 lb axles with an 86.5-inch hub-face measurement |
| Wheel Fit | Wheels using an 8 on 6.5-inch bolt pattern with 9/16-inch studs |
| Brake Configuration | Two left-hand and two right-hand electric brake assemblies |
| Suspension Fit | Double-eye leaf-spring tandem suspension using 3.5-inch round axle tubes |
| Installation Method | Axle perches must be positioned and welded to match the trailer’s verified spring-center measurement |
| Important Note | Verify hub face, spring center, wheel pattern, brake dimensions, tire and wheel capacity, suspension geometry, and trailer requirements before ordering or installation. |
Important Fitment Note: This kit requires professional fitment verification and assembly. Confirm the 86.5-inch hub face, required spring-center measurement, axle spacing, suspension hanger arrangement, wheel bolt pattern, stud size, brake mounting pattern, wheel and tire capacity, frame clearance, and all trailer specifications before welding or installation. Additional suspension components may be required depending on the existing trailer configuration.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Hub Face: Hub-face measurement is taken from the wheel-mounting surface of one hub to the wheel-mounting surface of the opposite hub.
Spring Center: Spring-center placement must match the trailer frame and suspension layout. The loose spring perches allow final positioning during installation.
Oil-Bath Hubs: The included hub and drums use oil seals, oil caps, O-rings, and center plugs. Fill with the correct lubricant and verify the oil level before operation.
Capacity: The kit contains two axle beams rated at 8,000 lb each. This does not independently establish the trailer’s GVWR or legal carrying capacity.
