I really wish I knew exactly what size bearings your trailer has but trailer manufacturers do not provide us with this information. However, if the Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # AKEBRK-7-SA that you purchased is correct then the most likely hub/drum to pair with these brakes is the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-655-6-K which uses a 25580 inner and a 15123 outer bearing. In order to be certain this is the correct hub/drum for you, you can either pull the hubs you have now and read the bearing numbers, measure them with a digital caliper, or call the trailer manufacturer with your VIN.

If you choose to pull the hub and read/measure the bearings then you will want to take a look at the help article I have attached for you first.

Answer 10

A BT8 spindle would have a diameter of .99 of an inch where the bearings would both install and would have a diameter of 1.24 where the great seal would ride. That would require a hub part #AKIHUB-440-2-1K for an idler hub. A BTR spindle would have…
