Expert Reply:
Good news, I can help you pick out which hub kit will work with your 5 Starr Boat Trailer.
I was able to look up your boat trailer and the parts used between packages varied. I can help you pick out which hub kit will fit if you can provide me with more information. Since we can't identify your axle capacity, I'm going to need you to get me a few measurements. You can either pull your bearings out and provide me the inner and outer numbers on them or measure your spindle according to this diagram I've attached.
I have linked a Help Article on Bearings for your convenience.
