How to Determine the Right Bearing Kit for a Trailer with 3500 Pound Axle
To determine the correct replacement bearing kit for your trailer you will need to pull off a hub and get the inner and outer bearing numbers stamped into the metal of the bearings. With those numbers I can determine the correct replacement parts for you. There are a couple of different kits for 3500 pound axles. Once you have the bearing numbers it will be easy to figure out the correct one. I have included a link to a video that should help with this project.

Can Bearing Protectors be Added to an EZ Lube Trailer Axle with Grease Zerk Fittings
Because your axle has the zerk fittings at the ends of the spindles, a bearing protector like a Bearing Buddy physically will not fit. You would either need to remove the zerk to use a bearing protector or replace the zerk fitting an continue using it. Zerk fittings are not always easily replaced if they have been pressed in so removing it may be the only option. Bearing protectors work well for boat or regular trailers and I would not say it is overkill for a strictly land trailer. To get yo

Replacement Bearing Kit for a 1995 Timeout Dart Motorcycle Trailer
What you can do is get the parts separately because the parts in the bearing kits cannot be swapped out for other parts. You would need a total of 4 bearings # L44649, 4 races, # L44610, a pair of the correct seals, # RG06-010, 2 cotter pins # 165649, and 2 spindle washers # 5-101.

How to Pick out Replacement Hubs for a 33 ft 1992 Holiday Rambler
In order to pick out the correct hub assembly for a trailer you are going to need know a few key pieces of information. The first thing you will need to know is the bolt pattern of your hubs. This is so you get a hub that is compatible with your wheels. I attached an FAQ article on determining bolt pattern for you to check out. Next thing you will need to know is what spindle you have on your trailer. In order to do that you can either get the inner and outer bearing numbers from a hub or use

Replacement Trailer Hub Grease Seal for L44643 Inner and Outer Bearings
The seal you need is going to be more associated with the inner bearing and race. The outer bearing will help identify other parts but only if I have both bearing numbers. If both bearings are the same then the seal is # 34823 or for a pair use # RG06-010. You will need to pull the hub and get the inner bearing number as well to be sure. These seals measure 1.249 inner diameter and 1.983 outer diameter.

Which Grease Seal for LM11949 Bearing and LM11910 Race on Utility Trailer with No-Lug Hub
We do not have any grease seals that match your dimensions. When part numbers are not visible on the old grease seals taking measurements of the spindles themselves is the next best option. But if you took your measurements on the old grease seal this could be the reason for no match since the seals may become deformed over time. You will obtain more accurate measurements using a precision dial caliper on the spindles themselves. If you can re-check the spindle dimensions using a precisio

How to Pack Grease in a Hub with a Broken Zerk Fitting on an EZ Lube Spindle
It sounds like the zerk fitting on your spindle has failed as it is not supposed to go into the spindle. You will want to remove the zerk fitting somehow because it could interfere with the possible solution of using bearing protectors, # KREB1980AC, to pack grease in the hub. As long as the zerk fitting is not in the way/removed then the bearing protectors will work out well for you.

Which Grease Seal for 5th Wheel Camper with Lippert 5200 lb Axle
Assuming that your hubs use the LM67048 outer and 25580 inner bearings, you will need the # BK3-300 which uses the 10-36 double lip grease seal with a 2.25 inch inside diameter. The BK3-310 uses a seal with a 2.125 inch inside diameter, which would not be compatible with your spindle. If you wish, you can confirm this by using a digital caliper to measure the diameter of the spindle surface where the spindle rides, as shown in the diagram.

Will TruRyde Bearing # L68149 Work With Imported # L68111 Race
The replacement parts for the TruRyde Bearing # L68149 and the TruRyde Race # L68111 use industry-standard numbers. While it is preferable to use matching parts made by the same company, as long as the numbers match up for the parts you want to use, there should be no problem. In this case, the 2 numbers do match up as being parts that are compatible. I also recommend that you replace the bearings and races at the same time.

How to Determine the Bolt Pattern of a Trailer Wheel
One method you can employ to help figure out the bolt pattern is as follows: Use the distance between the center of one bolt hole to the center of the bolt hole adjacent to it: If the distance is: 2-5/8 inches - the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2 2-3/4 inches - the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4 There could be different hubs put on a given axle with different bolt patterns so measuring is going to be key. The more common size is 5 on 4-1/2. This pattern can be found on everything for8 inch to 15

Replacing Damaged Spindle on Torsion Axle for Enclosed Trailer
Unfortunately, there is no good and easy way of replacing the spindle of a torsion axle. The spindle is welded into the suspension arm, and would need to be cut out. The replacement spindle would need to be welded into place. The heat involved in cutting out the old and installing the new spindle would damage the rubber torsion suspension cords inside the axle. I am sorry to say that replacing the axle will be your best bet. If you are in the St. Louis, MO area we can order an axle for you

Overloaded 7000 Axles on HR Aluma Scape 31 5th Wheel Trailer
If your axles are indeed rated for 7,000 pounds each, and your actual trailer weight is at 14,400 lbs you are already overloading each axle by 200 lbs. Determining the actual fully loaded and ready to tow weight of your fifth wheel is very important. Although some would argue that there would be some sort of cushion or wiggle room engineered into the axles, in my opinion you will need to lower the trailer weight to the point where it is below the axle capacity or upgrade to larger capacity ax

Electric Brake Assembly Recommendations for a Tandem Axle Trailer with 5,200 Pound Axles
A 5,200 pound axle is most like a de-rated 6,000 pound axle so 12 x 2 inch brake assemblies are most likely correct.

How Tight Should a Spindle Nut Be
The nut on the spindle should be tightened until snug, with no side-to-side play in the hub and then backed off slightly, about maybe a 1/8 of a turn. If the spindle uses a castle nut and cotter pin or tang nut, tighten the nut finger tight until it stops, then back it off so the cotter pin or washer tang fits into the next indentation of the castle nut.
