Great fit and shipped fast.



by:

Good part. Appears to work well.



by:

Should do the job. One of the two had some surface rust on it in the bearing area. Nothing real bad just needs some scotchbrite



by:

Really fast shipping and product as described.
Will
use them again.



by:

Labeled 1 3/8” but it was actually 1.5”. Had to lathe it down myself.



by:

Build went great. Built custom axle. Drilled 4 bung holes, cleaned up the spindles, used dial indicator to make it true and mig welded it up. Welded new perches on axle tube, painted it, mounted and Done. Gone Fishing.

I purchased these hubs, spindles, wheels and tires for a machine that I'm building. Initially, I tried to source them locally, but nobody had all six items that I needed. So I turned to etrailer again, and was very well pleased. All the items are of very high quality and work together without any modification. And the price, including the (free) shipping from etrailer was less than any local vendor, and they were delivered in less than a week. etrailer comes through once again! Thank you, etrailer!



by:

Cut and welded this in to replace one side on my harbor freight trailer where the smoked bearing was seized to the spindle. Working great for about a year.



by:

Its incredibly frustrating that etrailer will not provide dimensional information as to how far the brake plate needs to be from the tip of the axle or the bearing flange. Without this information it is very difficult to use these parts - we had to do it by trial and error and wasted a lot of time and money. The part is fine - lack of information is inexcusable.



by:

Very good, bearings fit well. I wish the stub end was fully machined.



by:

Smooth buying experience! Awesome service, tracking and delivered much faster than I thought to Canada. Looks like someone knows how to manage a business.

  • What Size Axle Does a #84 Spindle Fit
    A true 1 inch spindle is a BT8 spindle, like # TRU94FR. The next closest one would be the BTR spindle which is commonly referred to as a 1-1/16 inch spindle, like # TRU44FR and is more common than the BT8. Both of these are typically used with 2,000 lb axles. A #84 spindle, like # TRU24FR or # TRU47FR is bigger and is used for 3,500 lb axles. Common sizes for these are 2-3/8 inch round axle, 3 inch round axle, and 2 inch square axle. I have linked a helpful page that shows the different...

  • Are the TruRyde Spindle # TRU59FR and etrailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-545-2-2K Compatible
    The TruRyde Spindle # TRU94FR and our Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-545-2-2K are not compatible, but you could use the TruRyde EZ Lube Spindle # TRU44FR instead as it has the correct spindle measurements. For a hub that will work with the TruRyde Spindle # TRU94FR you can use part # AKIHUB-545-2-1K. To determine if a hub is compatible with a specific spindle you will need to make sure that the inner diameters of the Inner Bearing, Outer Bearing, and Grease Seal of the hub matches...

  • Replacement Axle Options For A Trailex SUT 200 Boat Trailer
    That is a very unique trailer you have, Gordon. Maybe a little too unique. We have spindles that you could use as replacements (1-3/8" Diameter Stub # TRU59FR, 1-1/4" Diameter Stub # TRU94FR, or 1-1/2" Wide (square) Stub # TRU97FR) that all have a 1" shaft for the bearings (which would be part # L44643). That axle is going to be too short for us to have anything that would work, unfortunately. What I would probably do would be grab two of these spindles and some tubing that will slide...

  • 4-80-8 Tire/Wheel Combo Needed as Well as 1 Spindle for Log Splitter
    The Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" White Wheel # AM30000 is an excellent tire and wheel combo that has a 4 on 4" bolt pattern and has review great reviews from our customers. If you just wanted the wheel it is part # AM20001 and if you just wanted the tire it is part # AM10002. We also have the Redline Spindle # TRU94FR which measures 1.25" where it installed on the axle but it measures 0.999" where the bearings ride and uses 1" bearings, # L44643. You would have to get this...

  • How to Determine Hub Face to Hub Face Dimension for Picking out Replacement Trailer Axle
    If you are looking to order a new axle for your 5 foot wide trailer you will need to determine what the hub face to hub face dimension you would need to clear your trailer that is 5 feet (60 inches) wide. You will also need to know the width of your wheels/tires. You will take the figure and divide by half as trailer wheels have a zero offset which means exactly 50 percent of the tire width will be on either side of the hub face. You will want to have a couple inches of clearance between...

  • Can I Change a 5 on 4-1/2 Drum With A 5 on 5 Drum For A Trailer With 3,500 lb Axles
    As long as the drums have the same weight capacity as the axles that you are putting them on then there should be no problems there. If you don't already have the 5 on 5 drums that you are asking about, I recommend using the E-Z Lube Hub and Drum Assembly # 84556UC3-EZ. It has the E-Z lube cap on the end of the drum so if you have E-Z-lube axles it makes greasing your axles easier. It also works great with axles that do not have the E-Z lube option. Since you are taking the 5 on 4-1/2...

  • Replacement Parts for an Older Farm Trailer
    Hey, Dan! I want to make sure I find the right parts for you. I checked with a few coworkers for extra input, and we were all a bit unsure what you’re referring to. Are you looking for just the spindle stub, or a full axle replacement? If you want to replace just the spindle, we have part #TRU94FR. It’s rated for 2,000 lbs and fits a 1-1/4" diameter axle tube. If that’s the route you’re taking, I’ll need the inner diameter of your axle beam. For a full axle replacement, the shortest...

  • Recommended Spindle/Hub Combo for a 1,750 lb Axle
    Hey Stevan, the Replacement Hub Assembly # DM04369 is just the hub, so the spindle is not included. This is a replacement part for the Demco Kar Kaddy so it'd use the existing spindle and mounting bolts to install. For a spindle, the closest it looks like we carry is a 2,000 lb spindle like the BT8 Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles # TRU94FR. This spindle would work great with the hub # 34822545BX for a 5 on 4 1/2 bolt pattern, or # AKIHUB-440-2-G-1K for a 4 on 4 bolt pattern - Both...

  • Looking For 4 on 4 Hubs For Older Trailer With Short Spindles
    Hello Rob, thanks for reaching out. We do offer some 4 on 4 hubs that will fit a 1" spindle, but we do not have anything for a short spindle like you described. A lot of older trailers used shorter spindles, and this design is not obsolete. The only solution for this will be to replace the spindles with the BT8 Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles # TRU94FR. This is a 1" straight spindle and it is the standard length. You can use that with the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-440-2-G-1K...

  • Availability of Bushing to Convert 3/4" Spindle to 1" Spindle
    Hi Tommy; we don't carry a bushing/sleeve that would convert your 3/4" spindle to a 1" spindle and I don't know of anyone who makes such a thing. We also don't carry any hubs that will fit a spindle that uses # LM11949 inner and outer bearings. The only option would be to swap out the spindle with one like the # TRU94FR or replace the axle. I know you don't want to replace the axle but that is typically the best solution with older, obsolete setups. This spindle is designed for 2k axles...

  • How to Determine the Correct Replacement Spindle With Bearing 07100
    Bearing 07100 are older bearings with the same dimensions as bearing # L44643. The spindles that uses those inner and outer bearings are # TRU94FR and # TRU59FR. The difference between these is one measurement, the furthest outer diameter, which is 1.25" on TRU94FR and 1.38" on TRU59FR.

    Hey Tom, I wish we could help but what you have is just too short to fit any of the spindles we carry including the part # AKIHUB-440-2-G-1K. Your spindle is the correct diameters but too short. Only solution would be to replace the spindle with the part # TRU94FR which is a bit longer.

  • What Replacement Spindle Do I Need for a Dexter 69-46 Spindle?
    As far as removing your current spindle, you will need to grind/drill off the old one. One the old spindle is removed, I recommend the BT8 Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles # TRU59FR (for a 1-3/8 diameter) or the # TRU94FR (for 1-1/4 diameter). The measurement of the diameter is the stub (innermost tube on the spindle). In order to get the correct size, I recommend measuring the stub of your old spindle once it is removed. I went ahead and attached videos of both of these spindles in order...

  • Is a Damaged Spindle Safe to Use If Hub Fits It
    It might seem that the spindle being slightly bent isn't a big deal but it can definitely lead to another blowout so you'll want to replace that spindle with a new one. It looks like you have a straight spindle like the standard BT8 found as part # TRU94FR for a circular end or part # TRU97FR for a square end. A damaged spindle will cause more friction which, in turn, increases the amount of heat produced which can lead to your bearings failing or a tire blowout. So any time a spindle...

  • How to Determine The Correct Replacement Trailer Hubs by Bearing Numbers or Spindle Size
    The best way to determine which replacement hubs you need for your trailer would be to remove one of the hubs and retrieve the bearings. Find the numbers stamped into the bearings and with those we will be able to get you the correct hubs. If you are unable to retrieve the bearing numbers, you can take measurements of the spindle. I have included a link to our spindle main page. At the top of the page is a diagram showing all of the measurements we would need to find the correct hubs...

    It sounds like you are needing the CE Smith Trailer Hub Assembly # CE13100. This hub fits on a 1" spindle and has the same 4 bolt lug pattern with the threaded bolts that screw into the hub. The grease seal used has the same 1.249" inner diameter as the 47370 that you have on your current hub. It is designed to fit a BT8 Spindle # TRU94FR that is 4-1/4" long on the 1" diameter portion of the spindle.

  • Availability of Trailer Hub to Fit Older Short Spindle on Boat Trailer
    If you have an older trailer with the short spindles then unfortunately we don't have any hubs that will fit. I've gone out to our warehouse and measured a handful of hubs in the past but none of them have a shorter length/height. The only option to use current hubs is to either cut off your spindle and replace it with something like part # TRU94FR so that the CE Smith Trailer Hub Assembly # CE13110 can be used, or purchase new axles entirely.

  • Solution for Replacement Parts for Boat Trailer With Hub Rubbing Trailer Axle
    It looks like the hub is rubbing up against the trailer axle on your boat trailer. If I had to guess, I would say since that spindle is attached to the axle with U-bolts it probably shifted over time to a point where the hub is too close to the axle. Moving the spindle out slightly so the hub is no longer contacting that axle will likely take care of the issue unless other parts are damaged. Once you remove the wheel and hub I would inspect the hub, spindle, and axle to see what damage...
