Shipping SpecialTrailer hub assembly includes lug nuts, inner bearing (L44649) and race, outer bearing (L44649) and race, grease cap and grease seal. Fits 2,000-lb axles. Constructed of cast steel.
Note: Some axles rated at 2,000 lbs require a different seal and bearings. Be sure that the bearings in the hub being replaced have L44649 stamped on them. If the bearings have L44643 stamped on them, use 34822545BX trailer hub.
Note: Trailer wheels that are smaller than 15" and have 5 bolts, have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern.
Determining the Bolt Pattern
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: 8 on 6-1/2 means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: 5 on 4-1/2 means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

Today we're going to take a quick look at Dexter Axle's Trailer Hub Assembly part number 8-259-5uc1. This trailer hub has a capacity of 1,250 pounds. So when you pair it with another one on the other side of the axle you'll have a total capacity of 2,500 pounds in your hubs which makes this a good application for 2,000 pound axles. Now this one features a 5 on 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern. So if we measure from the center of one lug to the center of the next we'll get our 2 5/8 measurement which indicates that it's 5 on 4 1/2. Now included with the hub assembly are the races, which are already pressed into place inside the hub.
You also have your five studs pressed into the hub and your five conical lug nuts for securing the wheels to the studs. You'll also find your cap that will protect the bearings and keep dust from getting inside, your grease seal--which, in this case, is a 10-9--in your inner and outer bearings. In this case they're both L44649. And that's it for a quick look at Dexter Axle's Trailer Hub Assembly for 8 to 10 inch wheels. Part number 8-259-5uc1..

Great hubs at a great price. Fully loaded minus the grease. Mine shipped with a double lip seal. Not sure if it was supposed to as I ordered extra seals because it wasn't supposed to have a double lip seal. The good news is now I have a spare set of seals. 75854

Replaced hub on a snowbear trailer with a failed wheelbearing. Hub set included everything required (save your hub nut and cotter pin). Function is same as original hub, however, original hub has a full flange. Quality seems OK, however, original equipment was also a Dexter hub. Hope this wheel bearing is better than original equipment.74947
