Default 2006 Fun Finder 189 FBR AXLE

Hello,

So today i was on the high way and one of the bearings seem to go bad and damaged the spindle. i guess it was my mistake to not replace the bearings when i bought it 6 months ago. So we took the trailer to an RV place and told me that i needed to replace the Whole AXLE
Does anyone have the SPECS for the fun finder Axle ?
The original Axel has the manufacturer Sticker and i called the Company (Lippert) but they told me that that was one of the first axels they manufactured and that they didn't have a replacement and they did not know the Specs of the AXLE.

I'm In California, If someone has had any experience with something like this i would appreciate your help.

Can i just replace the Spindle ??

Here is a picture of the tag in the Axle

Contact the axle manufacture directly and see if the sell replacement spindles for your model. Chances are they do. Also, did you repack the bearings when you got the trailer? If not,do so and inspect the bearings. If they look bad, replace them. Good luck.

Contact Cruiser with your VIN number. They can tell you the axle specs. With that information contact customer support at etrailer.com. They are trailer experts and sell what you need.

There are dealers in Calif that carry replacement axles -- where in Calif are you located? We upgraded from the 2500 (the one in your photo) to a 3500 when we bought our trailer.

I think the OP wants to avoid the cost of getting a new axle by just replacing the spindle. Earlier it was posted to go to etrailer and see what they recommend. I suspect that with the axle label info that they could let you know if it is possible to get a spindle or not.
