ETrailer helped me take this shabby trailer to sheik in just one week! Thank you so much for the helpful information. I had no idea what the axel rating was until I watched your video on inner/outer bearing sizing.

Will was the best helped me identify the best parts to convert an old 1970 axles to modern hubs and electric brake assembly’s new 6 lug wheels and tires fit perfect all bearings and parts were perfect. These folks are best ever to deal with or learn from.My feedback was slow because I was slow getting all of this done.

My home-made (not by me) trailer used trailer house axles, and the hubs were shot when I got it. Based on the spindle dimensions (thanks, eTrailer!), I determined that these 5200-lb hub/drum assemblies would fit, and they did perfectly. I've repacked many wheel bearings, so installing these was simple. They spin smoothly and seem to do their job well. The most weight I've put on these four hubs is about 5800 lbs, which was near the limit for the tires, but not a problem for the hubs. I've also driven an hour down the highway on multiple occasions, and have no complaints.

I haven't wired up my brakes yet, so I can't comment on how well the drums work.

Appears to be well made and came with all parts promised. I bought this for a spare so it's all greased and ready to go. I would buy this again.

Much more rust than I expected, I may have to take one drum to a brake shop and have it turned to clean up the rust.

The brakes on my 2002 Komfort 24-TS trailer were completely shot. I needed to replace the drums (cheaper than having them turned). I also needed to replace the electric brake assemblies and to upgrade them from manual to automatic adjusting. I called etrailer.com a couple of times to make sure I was ordering the rights parts and the phone reps were very helpful and courteous. The parts arrived on time and in good shape. I had everything I needed to complete the job. It took me all day to do all 4 wheels but I saved myself a whopping $1,000 over having the shop do the job.

I have ordered from etrailer.com several times before. They always have what I need at a good price and good shipping. These self adjusting brakes and new drums are just what I needed and installed perfectly. Highly recommend etrailer for what you might need.

Wanted to wait until after our most recent trip with our trailer before giving you the one year follow-up. Just pulled the trailer almost 1000 miles in the Rocky Mountains. The Nev-R-Adjust brakes & drums worked great and I felt very confident in their performance. I really appreciate not having to crawl under the trailer to adjust the brakes. All are good products and I would recommend them to all.

by: Dan 10/24/2021

Dexter provided a new rear seal, but it was the wrong size (apparently they use two different sizes of spindles on these axles). They also neglected to include a new cotter pin. Otherwise its a great product.

Jenny N.

10/26/2021

It is possible that the spindle could use a seal that has the outer dimension of 3.376 and an inner diameter of 2.25 like part # RG06-070. A cotter pin isnt included with the hub however we do have them available like part # 3371302250.

So this was the final upgrade to an 18 year old travel trailer - new brake assemblies, bearings, seals and hubs. The new brakes were a great improvement after a couple of trips break in, assembly was easy (although I do recommend buying a couple extra seals, just in case they get bent on install (ask me how I know). I have never worked on axles before but as a confident diy-er I was comfortable tackling it. Great products that were perfect fit made this an easy deal.

by: Robert M. 03/03/2015

The hub is a quality replacement for the OE hub/drums on an 1967 Airstream. The bearings/seals that come with the kit are not quite the quality I trust, but local shops have better quality ones available. Also, I'm confused as to why it's not listed (and confirmed in sales rep replies of customer questions) for 15" wheels as it fits in the two different styles of 15" wheels we have with plenty of clearance and the neutral offset loads the bearings correctly. I'd also recommend running a thread chaser on the lugs as paint can cause nuts to jam and not seat fully and thus work lose. All in all, with a little TLC, a better replacement option than rebuilding the original hubs.

I have ordered from etrailer.com on other occasions and for the most part what keeps me coming back in the pricing. They usually have the lowest price for the same original equipment. Be careful if you haven't heard that your product has shipped in a reasonable amount of time, even if their website says they have the item in stock. They will hold your order until they have all the parts to ship. I had not seen a shipped email for almost a week and when I called they said they would have it to ship in mid august, about a month after I ordered. I was told they had a similar item in stock ready to ship now if I wanted to change my order. I appreciated that and did change my order, however, I needed to know that information at the time they knew it because I had to change my vacation plans because I could not get the parts in time to take our 5th wheel. Overall this is a good place to order parts from and I will keep doing so.

by: William 05/30/2020

Recieved drum a day earlier than expected. Was a little concerned when I got it because the bottom of the box was open about 4in. Opened and everything seemed to be there. Almost exact replacement for my 97 prowler 5th wheel. Only difference was original drum had slots on sides to adjust the brakes without having to crawl under the camper. Overall it looks to be very good quality. Just pack the beaings, install grease seal, put on and adjust the brakes. Done!!!!!

by: Rick T 03/16/2020 One Year Later

Bought these for my trailer house axles. I converted to 6 lugs. Everything was easy. I don't use the brakes as of now. But t looks like a perfect fit. When I do go to brakes ill buy the parts for that.

Same as the backing plates, these hub and drum assemblies fit just right and have been doing a good job on my 10,000 LB dump trailer for over a year now with no issues.

by: Airstreamin 06/16/2014

Ford Edge

Exact match, installed with new backing plate ordered as well. Packaging could of been better, had 1/4" x 3" rear edge of forward shoe chipped off due to you folks placing drum onto backing plate at an angle during boxing. Have seen this error occur many times from someone not wanting to smash fingers this way with heavy hub assy. Ease to install and adjust, heed my advice to pay attention in the shipping dept to not have damage done this way again.

by: Kevin 07/30/2021

Very good quality, with straightforward installation. Only negative is the fact that the kit doesnt come with new key washer, castle nut, and cotter pin. So if using this kit make sure to save those!

Product was exactly as described and worked perfectly as a replacement on my Ezloader trailer, shipping was very fast and employees were very knowledgeable and friendly on the phone.

by: Jennifer 10/07/2023 One Year Later

Think I received the wrong size on first order. But seller was quick to send another version that did fit. After struggling with getting old parts off, the less time between that and putting new parts on, the greater the satisfaction of getting everything back together. But even with a couple of weeks passing, I can tell you that the new parts go back on a whole lot easier than the old parts came off! All told, it was a good company to deal with, and they do work with you to get the right parts. Its cheaper for them to get it right the first time, but they can't see what you have in front of you. That said, some of their charts of what SHOULD be the right parts, were not in my case, and I bought the trailer new and know that no one modified it. But trailer manufactures change things up sometimes, and the documentation is not good. That said, you can rely on this seller to help you when you need it.

by: oldspurs 06/27/2015

Haven't installed yet, but got last evening and checked parts....everything looks! The process of ordering with Suzanne at etrailer was a good experience....she knows her trailer parts! I received my brake parts in about 48 HRS! I only wish that etrailer offered a bearing option of Timken brand or some other American made bearing sets!

Replacement Parts for Dexter Motorhome Axle 8-133
The Dexter 8-133 axle according to my contact at Dexter is an old motorhome axle they no longer make. Their tech said the motorhome axles like what you have are designed for one time use so there are not compatible parts made for even replacement brake shoes, so unfortunately we can't help if you are using the axle for the original purpose on a motorhome. If you have transferred this axle to a trailer instead of a motorhome, which is popular to do, then you can replace both the hubs and...

Recommended Self Adjusting Brakes for Al-Ko 4,400 lb Axles
Michael, so you are correct you do have 4,400 lb axles so you can use the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brakes # K23-478-479 for replacements. These are self adjusting so you never need to manually adjust them, works with 14", 14 1/2", and 15" wheels, and includes both the left and right hand side. For hubs we have had customers in the past use # 8-201-5UC3, but you'll want to check your existing bearings and verify that they will work with this hub.

Replacement Hub and Drum With 25580 Inner Bearing and LM67048 Outer Bearing
Thanks for that info and we do have a replacement hub and drum for you with inner bearing # 25580 and outer bearing # LM67048, though you are going to need to take one more measurement, and with Digital Caliper # 301-17068 because it needs to be measured down to the thousandth of an inch. So, the correct hub and drum will depend on the size of the grease seal, and you'll need to measure your spindle where the seal rides to get that measurement. - 2.25" Diameter: Dexter Trailer Hub and...

What Is The Difference Between Dexter Hubs 8-201-5UC3-EZ And 8-201-5UC3?
Hey Justin, thanks for reaching out. The only difference between the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assemblies # 8-201-5UC3 and # 8-201-5UC3-EZ is the grease cap that comes with it. The # 8-201-5UC3 comes with a standard grease cap, while the # 8-201-5UC3-EZ comes with an easy-lube grease cap. The easy lube cap has a removable rubber plug that lets you access the grease zerk on an easy lube axle without removing the cap.

Economical Option for Trailer Wheel With 5 on 5-1/2 Bolt Pattern and Trailer Tires
It sounds like you are just looking for the most economical way to add trailer tires and wheels with a 5 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern but are concerned they won't fit when you replace your axle. Realistically this is a valid concern and your axle may in fact not have spindles that accept a hub with the same 5 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern so you may need to get new wheels and tires when you decide to do that. For now, the most economical option for you to wheels and tires is first with the Modular...

Recommended Oil Hub Drum Kit for a Dexter 5,200 lbs Axle
Yes, but you'll need to purchase two separate kits per hub. Since you have a Dexter 5,200 lbs axle you'll want the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 5,200-lb Axles item # 8-201-5UC3. This uses inner bearing item # 25580 and outer bearing item # LM67048. It wouldn't hurt to confirm these bearing sizes but since you have a 6 lug hub not an 8 this is most likely the same size.

Looking For Hub With 25580/LM67048 Bearings And Standard 5 Or 6 Lug Bolt Pattern
Hello Jamie. We do offer some hubs that use the # 25580 (1.75" inner diameter) inner bearing and the # LM67048 (1.25" inner diameter) outer bearing. For an idler hub we have the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # 8-213-5UC1-EZ. If you need a hub and drum assembly we have part # 8-201-5UC3 which is a 12" x 2" drum. These hubs have the 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern which is standard, so you will have no problem finding compatible 15" wheels such as the Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel # AM20514.

Replacement Hub Solution for Dexter 8-133
I spoke with my contact at Dexter to find the bearing and seal information on the 8-133 hub. She confirmed that the 8-133 hub uses inner bearing # 25580 and outer bearing # LM67048 with the 10-1 # GS-2125DL grease seal. These match with the hub # 8-213-5UC1 for an idler hub or part # 8-201-9UC3-EZ for a hub/drum.

Replacement Hub and Drum for a Dexter 8-133
You will need to get the other bearing number from inside your current hubs before we can pick you out replacement hubs. Most likely the outer bearing you pulled is a LM67048 and the inner you have is a 25580 which would mean that the # 8-201-5UC3 would be the correct size hub and drum for you. This hub has a bolt pattern of 6 on 5-1/2 inch and would not work with your current wheels. I attached a page that has all of the wheels and tires we offer in that bolt pattern.
