If replacing an axle, always verify:

Frame width
Spring spacing
Fender clearance after drop

Hitch Warehouse Tip

When switching to a drop axle, always check your fender and tire clearance - lowering the trailer improves stability, but can reduce clearance under load.

Also, take advantage of the EZ Lube system by doing regular maintenance - fresh grease every season can significantly extend bearing life and prevent costly failures.
