Need axles... MFI trailer, AR 230... Lengths?

@BikGS, could you post a picture of your trailer after the axle swap?

My thinking is that the 89" axles should have moved the hubs in 2.5" from their factory position. Perhaps your new wheels had an offset that made up for that?

Did you measure your factory axles or have factory and new axles beside each other?

My dad did the measurements and we ordered axles based off them. Unfortunately the trailer isn't with me to take any pics, but it all fit fine. The wheels were from etrailer too, I'll have to look them up real quick.

Those are zero offset wheels so they would not change the position.

My axles are at least 94”. The tires are near the outside of the fenders. There may be enough fender width to allow for moving them in 2.5” with 89” axles. If I were changing both I might consider that.

That's likely the case. I had to do both axles, so it wasn't an issue for me. Truth be told, if I was doing it over again, I'd have gone slightly wider axles.

I just replaced one of my axles on my trailer. The one I ordered was 93.5 inches hub face. Then I put on the rotors for the new brakes and that put me at 94 inches exactly which is what the other axle is.
