No messy bearing packing or seal installation here. The CE Smith Trailer Idler Hub Assembly comes pre-greased and fully assembled with bearings, races, grease seal, grease cap, lug nuts, and cotter pin already in place. It’s designed for 6,000-lb axles with #42 spindles and uses heavy-duty marine grease that’s ready for immediate use. Just slide it on and torque the 1/2"-20 x 2-1/16" studs.
Rust can ruin a hub fast, especially when exposed to water. This assembly takes that problem off your list with zinc plating on the lug nuts, cotter pin, and grease cap to help limit corrosion. Combined with its sturdy iron construction, it’s made to hold up in wet or salty conditions while keeping everything running smooth.
Matching bearings and seals can be a headache when replacing worn parts. This hub eliminates guesswork with a proven fit for #42 spindles and a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern. The inner bearing (25580) with 1.75" inner diameter, outer bearing (15123) with 1.25" inner diameter, and grease seal GS2250DL (2.25" ID / 3.376" OD) are all included so everything lines up correctly the first time.
Each hub supports up to 3,000 lbs, making it a dependable choice for steady load handling day after day. It’s compatible with wheel sizes from 14-1/2" to 17" and has a 7-1/4" hub flange diameter with a 2.44" grease cap flange diameter. Built solid and balanced, it’s made to keep your trailer rolling without vibration or uneven wear.
1. Count the lug holes
Look at the wheel hub or the back of the wheel and count how many lug holes there are(also called bolt holes).
Common configurations include: 4-lug, 5-lug, 6-lug and 8 lug
2a. For even lug counts (4-lug, 6-lug, 8-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole directly across to the center of the hole opposite it.
Common configurations: 4 on 4", 6 on 5.5", 8 on 6.5"
2b. For odd lug counts (5-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole to the outer edge of the hole directly across (not center-to-center since there's no directly opposite hole).
Common configurations: 5 on 4.5" (most popular), 5 on 5", 5 on 4.75", 5 on 5.5"
