When you’re hauling serious weight, you need a hub and drum that can handle it without breaking a sweat. This Dexter assembly is designed for 8,000-lb E-Z Lube trailer axles with #42 spindles and delivers a solid, smooth braking surface. The 12-1/4" diameter x 3-3/8" wide drum works with 12-1/4" brake assemblies, giving you dependable braking power every time you stop. With a 4,000-lb weight capacity per hub and an 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern, it’s ready for the long haul.
This assembly comes complete with everything you need for a full replacement—inner bearing (25580), outer bearing (02475), their races, a 10-36 grease seal, grease cap, wheel bolts, and 5/8" lug nuts. Everything is precision-matched, so you can skip the parts hunt and move straight to installation. The sturdy iron construction adds strength and durability for years of reliable use.
Keeping bearings lubricated shouldn’t mean tearing everything apart. The E-Z Lube-compatible grease cap makes it simple—just remove the rubber plug, attach your grease gun to the zerk fitting on the spindle, and pump in fresh grease. It flows through to both the inner and outer bearings, protecting your hub from corrosion while saving time and cleanup.
This hub-and-drum assembly provides the precise surface area needed for brake shoes to grip evenly when activated. Whether you’re using electric or hydraulic drum brakes, the sturdy iron drum design keeps things consistent and dependable under load. That means smoother braking and fewer worries when you’re on the move.
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"

Hub/drum was exactly what I ordered as a direct replacement and shipping was fast. One thing I didn’t notice when I purchased the hub/drum is that it did not include a new washer. I used the old one but if say I had a catastrophic failure I may not of had the washer.
Staff was so easy to work with!!! Could not find what we needed anywhere else until trailer. My camper is back on the road and they were so easy to install. Thank you trailer my family is great full. We are on to create more memories thanks to you!!!
Exactly as described. Replace hubs and brakes x 2 axles in less than 2 hours. Took more time jacking up axles than it did replacing brakes and hubs.
Was told this came with bearings pre greased. Came with neither
Does not look like right for ez lube spindle.
The 1996 tandem axle trailer had two different Dexter axles; one manual and one EZ Lube. The standard axle had manual adjust brakes, the EZ Lube had self adjusting brakes. After disassembling the two types of drums and taking measurements of drums & spindles, Josh with etrailer was able to ensure I ordered the correct parts. I replaced the EZ Lube drums and the self adjust brakes with the new Dexter drums and Terran self adjust brakes. The manual drums and brakes were replaced with new TruRyde drums and the Terran self adjusting brakes. Everything is working well.
Dexter trailer hubs and brakes where exact fit for our Rockwood travel trailer. Installation was straight forward and brakes have worked perfectly since installed. Delivery of parts was prompt. Since then I have ordered and installed a powered tongue jack which also fits our camper and works well.
Took way too long to ship from the warehouse. Tracking info was not specific and told me two different dates at the same time. I emailed you early in the order procesd and you never replied. I would assume that many of your customers are contractors and need parts in a timely manner. By delaying the shipping, you are delaying someones job. The parts came in dirty. I will not be ordering from you again.
Great
The salesperson was great! Knowledgeable and got my order shipped out promptly! However, the packaging was terrible.. The hub I ordered was a very important item needed to complete my job for customer. The box was busted and missing a few parts that should have been in the box. E-trailer should strongly consider repackaging in a second stronger box for heavy items like this. I had to locate missing parts (bearing, lugnuts, lock ring, washer) which luckily I was able to find locally- still very irritating because of my timeline for customer. STRONGER BOXES PLEASE! This issue could have been prevented with better packaging..
Info for this part was:
At etrailer we provide the best information available about the products we sell. We take the quality of our information seriously so that you can get the right part the first time.
