• Recommended Seal For Bearing Buddy Protectors
  The Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors - Model 1980A-SS w/ Auto Check - Stainless Steel (Pair) # BB1980A-SS are designed for that blue seal to expand and eventually have visible grease around that edge. I've attached a video that shows this installation and grease application for you. The grease needing to be applied almost every trip is not normal, so I recommend the Spindle Grease Seal Set # BB60002 to contain your grease with a tight seal intended for this application.

• Replacement Bearings and Seal for Trailer with LM29749 and L44610 Bearings
  We carry the a grease seal that matches what you have. For that you would want the # BB60002. For the bearings we have the part # 29749 and the race part # 29710. For the other bearing we do not have an exact number match, but based on the race # L44610 that you have the bearing you need is either the # L44643 or # L44649. If the inner diameter of the bearing you have is 1.00 inches measured with a digital or dial caliper you would need part # L44643, if instead it is 1.06 you would...

• What Seal Is Needed To Replace NAPA Seal 17144 And Can Work With Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors?
  I do see the NAPA seal 17144 matches the dimensions of the Grease Seal # 58846. Since you are using a Bearing Buddy you are going to want to use one of their seal sets. The seal this size is typically in combination with a Inner Bearing # L68149 which will use the Seal Set # BB60002. This seal set is designed to be used in combination with a Bearing Buddy as it is capable of holding the pressure it creates.

• Replacement Bearings for Mobile Home Hub with 1-1/4 Outer and 1-3/8 Inner Bearings
  It sounds like you're trying to replace hubs on a mobile home axle. Mobile home axles are designed for one time use, to transport the mobile home from point A to point B and then intended to be discarded after that. Because of this, replacement parts are rarely available for most mobile home axles and although we don't have a hub that matches the bearing sizes you mentioned, we have replacement bearings that may work to service your existing hub. For a bearing with a 1.375 inch inner...

• Idler Hubs, Bearings, Seals and Grease For a 2015 V22L ShoreLand'r Boat Trailer
  Thank you for providing all the information. If you are going to replace your entire idler hub you would want the Stainless # KH84545S or Galvanized # DE36VR idlers hubs since its on a boat trailer. These will come with the Inner Race # L68111 and Outer Race # L44610 already in the hub. It will then use the Inner # L68149 and Outer # L44649 bearings along with the Seal Set # BB60002 to work with your Bearing Buddy Protectors # BB1980A-SS.

• What is Purpose of O-Ring that Comes with Spindle Grease Seal Set BB60002
  If you check out the diagram I attached you'll see how the O-ring of the Bearing Buddy Grease Seal set part # BB60002 installs. It's location is designed to compress between the seal ring and grease seal to help prevent the seal from leaking or failing. With Bearing Buddies people tend to put too much grease in the hubs with them so this acts as a way to help brace the seal and prevent failure.

• Spindle Grease Seal Sleeve For 3,500LB Trailer Axles
  We carry the Bearing Buddy Spindle Grease Seal Set # BB60002 instead of the Dexter sleeve. I do not recommend the Dexter as with the one hole if that sleeve were to spin on the shaft it would block the hole of the EZ lube grease zerk. With the Bearing Buddy kit above you will have to use their Bearing Protectors # BB1980A-SS to grease your bearings but you will have the neoprene seal which is superior to the rubber seals used on typical grease seals. You may need to remove your grease zerk...

• Recommended Brake Assemblies for Karavan Boat Trailer with 3500 lb Axle
  For your brake assemblies, I recommend the Demco Hydraulic Brake Kit - Free Backing - Galvanized - 10" - Left/Right Hand Assemblies - 3.5K # 40716-15. These galvanized assemblies will work very well for saltwater or freshwater use, resisting corrosion. The free backing design allows you to back up without using the lockout on your coupler. This will absolutely fit your 3500 lb axle. For your Bearing Buddies, bearings, and seals, you very likely have the standard size 84 spindle but...

• Bearing Buddy Spindle Seal Kit For Hub Using L68149 Inner Bearing
  The Bearing Buddy Grease Seal Kit you referenced, part # BB60002 would be the appropriate replacement seal for your hub. It is compatible with your L68149 inner bearing and is the proper replacement for your existing 10-19 seal. The two most common causes of seal failure are 1) Using a single lip seal instead of a double lip and 2) Overfilling the hub (or a combination of the two.) A double-lip seal incorporates a spring into the seal, providing a tighter seal around the spindle. To fill...

• Bearings & Seals for 2004 EZ Loaded Boat Trailer Using Bearings L68149 and L44649
  We can help you with replacement seals and bearings for your boat trailer and also with replacement hubs if yours are worn or damaged.

• Replacement Double Lip Grease Seal For A 2001 Karavan Boat Trailer
  Based on the information you provided the correct grease seal would be the Spindle Grease Seal Set # BB60002, but since you said you were having leakage with a 1.75 ID seal I recommend going with the Grease Seal - Double Lip # 58846. It is slightly smaller but should flex enough to fit and prevent the leakage you've been experiencing.

• How to Determine Correct Replacement Bearings and Seal for 2001 Ranger Boat Trailer Hubs
  In order to determine the correct replacement bearings and seal for the hubs on your Ranger Boat Trailer, you will need to first remove the hub assemblies. Once removed, you can check for the bearing numbers, which should be stamped onto the bearings themselves. If you are unable to locate or read the numbers, you can also take a few measurements along the trailer spindle where the bearings and seal sit. I have attached an image that clarifies exactly where these measurements will be taken...

• Correct Seal For 2.562 Boat Trailer
  After running the numbers the Seal Set # BB60010 you were looking at is for the L68149 Inner Bearing or the 1.810 Bearing Buddy. I don't think that is what you're looking for. I found this Seal Set # BB60002 which is for LM48548 or L68149 Inner Bearing and also for a 1.980, 1.968 or 2.562 Bearing Buddy. The 2.562 matches the seal number you provide and this is the best match I could find on our site. I've included a video Randy made to help you with the install!

• Which Replacement Grease Seal with 1.750 Inner Diameter
  The Grease Seal - Double Lip - ID 1.719" / OD 2.565" - for 3,500-lb Axles - Qty 2 # RG06-050 is the correct replacement for a 171255TB seal and I'm not seeing a grease seal we have that has a 1.750 ID. You do want a tight seal on your hubs so that the grease is sealed in and water, dust, debris, etc., is kept out, so it might just be that he's having trouble getting it seated properly. With that said, 1.875" ID is the next size up for grease seals and the available replacements would be...

• Where Does O-Ring Install When Using Bearing Buddy Grease Seal BB60002
  If you use the O-ring of the Bearing Buddy grease seal kit you'll want to use the attached diagram to assemble everything. This came straight from Bearing Buddy so hopefully it clears up any confusion. Not every application uses these but if you are using a Bearing Buddy they are recommended since they end up with more pressure in the hub than applications without. Seals do tend to have issues randomly and sometimes its hard to have an exact reason. If you are using a Bearing Buddy typically...

• Grease Seal and Bearing Buddies for a 1996 Tracker Marine Tandem Axle Trailer
  I agree that seal # 168233 will work based on the measurements you have provided. There is an ever so slight margin of error and the differences in the measurements you took and the seal measurements are statistically zero so it would not be a problem. If you wanted to go with Bearing Buddies then you would need a 1980 model, # BB1980A. The matching grease seal set would then be # BB60002. I have linked a video review for you.

• Compatibility of the Bearing Buddy Grease Seal Set with Posi-Lube Spindles
  To make sure the Bearing Buddy Grease Seal Kit, # BB60002, will be compatible with your Posi-Lube spindles, a measurement on the spindle where this seal will sit. The inner diameter of the steel ring for this set measures 1.377 inches. Your spindle will have to fall within this measurement for this seal kit to fit. I have attached a diagram of where you will need to measure on your spindle to find the correct measurement.
