I'm in the process of replacing the keel rollers on my '79 EZ Loader trailer. The problem I'm having is all the rollers I've found use a 5/8" axle and my trailer has 3/4" axles. Does anyone know where I can find the right rollers?

You may have to go to the smaller pins.
That trl is 32 years old and they may be available any more.

Thats what I'm finding out! My problem is that all the roller brackets are welded to the trailer and I'd lke to avoid cutting them off. I probably will have to go with 5/8" axles and machine up bushings to make them work.

Ayuh,... When faced with that, I welded 5/8" washers to the brackets, to reduce the holes...
