RG04-010 TruRyde Rubber Lube Plugs for 1.18" Lubed Dust Cap Hole
Videos are provided as a guide only. Refer to manufacturer installation instructions and specs for complete information.
Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today we're gonna be checking out the true ride plugs for EZ Lube grease caps. So right off the bat you're probably wondering are these actually gonna fit my trailer And as long as you have the EZ Lube grease caps chances are really good they will. There are a bunch of different manufacturers that make these caps but generally speaking they're all gonna have the same size opening there. So if you pop this one out, like I said majority of them are gonna be the same. So 1.18 size opening.
So if you're unsure, you can measure that and figure that out really. And the whole point of the cap, you know the grease cap and this plug, is allow to you to pop that out like I just did. Get your grease gun in there and lube up all of your parts inside of there with ease. And then, you know, obviously you don't wanna leave that exposed. So the cap will pop back into place.
And these things are really tight too. So I feel like they do a decent job of keeping everything sealed up. To me this is just one of these small parts. It's just good to keep, you know, replaced every now and again. What happens over time They just wear out, you know what I mean They get sun faded, kind of start to dry rot.
You know, if you're in and out of the water with em, and this is a good example of one that's several years old. It's started to dry rot, try to push it in place, and the center of it just pushed through. So, you know, if you're cap and everything's still in good shape, you can get away with just get the the replacement plugs like this one here that way put it in, keep everything sealed. And that way, you know, you don't end up chewing your bearings up, getting dirt and everything else inside of there. And I was replacing one, I would probably just replace 'em all.
You know, it's one of those small things to just, just knock 'em all out. Like that's just me. And I mean, you know, the type of stuff happens. Like I said, they just wear out, you grease 'em forget to put 'em back in. Whatever the case may be at the very least, there's an option available that you can grab these and get fixed back up. The plug does feel like it's made from some type of rubber, pretty thick. Like I said, I feel like it should hold up for quite some time. That one I just had was super old. So I got a lot of life out of it. But other than that though, I mean, at the end of the day you know, that's really about it. Regardless if you need these, or let's say, even if you're looking for the whole whole deal, you need the cap as well. Tons of different options available here at etrailer. So regardless on the small ins and outs that you need, we should be able to get you covered. And that'll finish up our look at of the true ride plugs for the EZ Lube grease caps..

fit the existing hub very well
Worked well as replacement to lost ones on a 2023 Grand Design Momentum 395MS
Good fit. Haven’t put any miles on them yet.
Fit perfectly and seemed to be a heavier quality rubber than the originals
Items were an exact fit. Shipping was on time. Overall a great experience, once again, as a repeat customer.
Perfect replacements.
Exactly what I needed quick shipping . I always get great service.
Quality, good service and delivery, parts fit good.
Shipped fast, parts fit
Service was great and timely. Wasn't sure if I ordered the right size but it fit perfectly. Will use etrailer again if needed. Thanks
Perfect fit for my Dexter EZ Lube 3500# axle hubs.
Replaced poorly maintained bearings and hubs on a recently acquired boat trailer. The factory spindles were salvageable. Ordered replacement grease caps and seals. Shipping was quick, exact match for the grease caps on the trailer. Installed easy and packed with grease.
Grease caps fit and worked perfectly on my Diaomnond C 7000 lb axles. No leaks a year later.
Perfect fit. Does what it is supposed to do. I put these on a 1988 Bass Tracker boat trailer.
good less expensive alternative
Unfortunately I ordered the wrong size. Too small. I will give a review later after I figure out the right size. Thanks for reaching out.
Arrived timely as described and fits my need. Thanks!
These are the caps that get removed to pump grease into an Ultra-lube hub. Perfect fit on my trailer with AL-KO 8490 axles and 10x2.25 brakes. Very nice price for a product that can be hard to find locally.
I can't prove it, but my research suggests these cross reference to:
+ 85-10
+ AL KO #568067
+ Hayes #09213611
+ TruRyde RG01-010
+ Dexter 085-001-00
fast shipping, quality material, I would buy again
Excellent product. Fit perfectly. I needed these to replace some older dry rotting ones. Would recommend and will purchase again when needed.

Still working great and look as good as the day I bought them.
Shipping took a little longer than expected. Otherwise service was excellent.
I tried this product for an aviation application. I own a DHC-2 Beaver aircraft that has a tail wheel axle that is 1.125 inch ID. I wanted an end cap that was removable because the axle tube is used to steer the aircraft with a hand held bar during some ground movement. So far the rubber cap seems to work. It has remained on during several flights. It is easy to remove and insert. The only problem may occur if the cap mounting area of the axle become oily or greasy which may allow the cap to slip off. It seems to need a friction fit to stay on.

The product seems to be pretty good. After one year of use, they have worn out. Not sure if it’s due to heat during summer months or the material and how they are manufactured.
I purchased these along with a complete bearing kit, to replace the ones that came originally on my trailer. There was nothing wrong with the original ones but rubber being rubber I thought it would be a good idea. Wrong. I lost one almost immediately (just the 3rd time I took the trailer out). Luckily I didn't lose much grease so the bearings shouldn't need replacing.
