We have a hub that will fit your 1996 Jayco popup trailer. The Dexter Trailer Hub assembly, # 8-91-05UC1-EZ, that you referenced will work on your trailer axle.

This hub uses the # L44649 bearings and has a 4 bolt lugs. Measuring the current hubs bolt pattern will tell you for sure if this hub will work for you. I have attached an article that will explain how to find what your wheel bolt pattern is on your current hub.

If you do not have grease zerks at the end your axle spindles, then use the hub # 8-91-05UC1. This hub will also fit, but will include the typical one piece dust cap.

I also recommend using Wheel Bearing Grease, # L11465, a grease gun( if you do not already have one) # L30200, and the LubriMatic Deluxe Bearing Packer, # L70025 when getting ready to install the hub on your trailer.
