Video Transcript for Kodiak XL ProLube Oil Bath Hub Body and Cap: The Breakdown

Hi there trailer runners! Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the XL Pro Lube oil bath adapter. This oil bath cap will allow you to take a traditional grease filled assembly and remove your cap on there, install this new one that gives you a fill point for your oil bath and all the necessary markings that you need on here to know how full that you need to make it. Now, when you're installing this if you are doing a conversion from a grease setup to oil you would wanna make sure that you also replace the seal on the inside. And that seal needs to be an oil bath seal instead of just a regular typical grease seal. There are differences between the two and it's important that you have the appropriate one to prevent the oil from leaking out. You can also get these in a kit.

If you're wanting to do a conversion you can get the outer cap here as well as the inner seal for an entire axle, and you'll also get the lubricant included with the kit so you can fill up the axle. If you're working on a tandem like we are just make sure you grab two kits so you can do the conversion for both. The cap here is a 2.440 inch inner diameter, and that's the, what it's gonna fit inside of here on your hub. So as long as you've got that same dimension here this cap should drive right in. I was gonna also mention if you are putting on one of these caps here you might notice that there is a chrome center cap that's typically in place on these kind of center caps there.

With the Pro Lube caps installed, they extend out a little bit further than your traditional grease cap. And I actually had to pop that center cap out of there. We're not gonna be able to reinstall that center cap due to clearance issues, but you will be able to still use the main part of the center cap just not the actual little tiny center cap. And it actually doesn't look too bad once you get it on here, it can, you can actually see your oil level right away. So it works out pretty nicely with this particular wheel.

But if you do have a similar wheel like this, just note that you will have to remove that center chrome cap. And that completes our look at XL Pro Lube's oil bath adapter..

  • Converting Hubs From Grease To Oil Bath On 2014 Outback 298RE Travel Trailer
    Hey Perry, thanks for reaching out. We certainly should have the parts you need for an oil bath conversion, but I will need to collect a bit more info on your axle in order to be sure you get the right parts. First I will need to know the weight capacity of each axle. That will help a lot to narrow down the right parts. I will also need to know the bearing sizes and seal size for your hub. You will need to get brand new bearings since you are switching over to oil. The best way to determine...

  • Can Kodiak Oil Bath Body be Reused
    You are right that the Kodiak XL ProLube Oil Bath Hub Body and Cap - 2.440" # XLPROLUBE2440 will be damaged when removed, and is not meant to be reused. It acts as part of the hub, essentially, so if you remove it you will need to replace it as well.

  • Parts Needed To Swap From Grease To Oil Bath For 7K Axles
    To swap over to oil bath you can just swap out the bearings, grease seal, and caps but I'll need a bit more info in order to determine the correct fit for your setup. If you don't need to trailer for a bit you can remove one of the hubs and check the face of the outer bearing for the part number. You can then look at the grease seal for it's part number and pop it out to check the inner bearing. Once we have these part numbers we can determine the correct replacements. If the part numbers...

  • Recommended Synthetic Bearing Lubricant for Kodiak Oil Bath Hubs
    In your oil bath-type hubs you will want to use any 80- or 90-weight synthetic gear oil. My contact at Kodiak confirmed that the brand of oil is not important but that use of a synthetic oil in this viscosity range is what matters. As it happens though, the brand of synthetic 90-weight bearing oil we offer is Kodiak, part # XLPROLUBE.

  • Options For Replacing A Tie Down Turbo Lube 48394 Clear Oil Bath Cap
    Though we do have the Bearing Buddy # BB2441T-SS that is a direct replacement for Tie Down's Turbo Lube oil baths, this will require you changing over to grease instead of oil. With that said, we do also have the Kodiak XL ProLube Kit # XLPROLUBE2440KIT (or # XLPROLUBE2440 as a single cap) that will measure the same, but the end that sits in the hub is not threaded. To get this to fit, you would either need to have the ends of the caps threaded, or have the threads turned down on your...

  • How to Determine the Correct Oil Bath Cap
    To figure out the correct oil bath cap, you will need to know your axle's capacity or size of your hub bore. For a 3,500 lb hub or 1.98" hub bore you would use Kodiak XL ProLube Oil Bath Hub Body and Cap # XLPROLUBE1980, or for the kit you would use # XLPROLUBE1980KIT. If your axle had a capacity of 5,200 lbs or 6,000 lbs, or 2.44" hub bore you would want Kodiak XL ProLube Oil Bath Hub Body and Cap # XLPROLUBE2440 or if you wanted the kit you would use # XLPROLUBE2440KIT.

  • Parts Needed To Change Trailer Hubs From Grease To Oil Bath
    In order to be able to change your hubs from using grease to an oil bath you need a couple items. For the hubs you said have an inner diameter of 2.44 I recommend the Kodiak XL ProLube Oil Bath Hub Body and Cap, part # XLPROLUBE2440. This has the hub body that fits in your hub and a cap with threads. You will also need the Unitized Oil Seal, part # 10-63 for your hubs. This is a dual action seal. The inner part of the seal stays fixed in place on the spindle and the outer part turns...

  • Availability Of Oil Bath Hubs For Boat Trailer With 7000lb Axles
    There are a few options for oil bath hubs for a boat trailer with 7000lb axles though I will start with saying that oil bath hubs are not recommend for a boat trailer due to the oil braking down very fast when water is introduced unlike grease. The first is a disc brake option which is the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 13" Hub/Rotor - 8 on 6-1/2 - Dacromet and Stainless - 7,000 lbs # K2HR712DS. This system includes races but you will need inner bearing # 25580 and outer bearing # 14125A. Now...

  • Which Oil Bath Cap Do I Need on a 2003 EZ Loader Trailer
    In order to determine the correct oil bath cap you'll need to measure your hub bore or find the weight capacity of your axle. If you have a 3500 lbs. axle or a 1.98 inch hub bore you will want part # XLPROLUBE1980 or # XLPROLUBE1980KIT for a kit that includes caps, seals, and oil. For 5200 or 6000 lbs. axles that have a hub bore of 2.440 inches you will need # XLPROLUBE2440 or # XLPROLUBE2440KIT for the kit.

  • Parts Needed To Convert a Triple Axle Toy Hauler With 5,080LB Axles To Disc Brakes 6 on 5-1/2 Bolt
    While we do not have a specific kit for your triple axle toy hauler with the 5,080lb axles we do have all the parts you will need. You will need to verify the bearing and grease seal sizes used on your axle to ensure I have all the correct parts listed below. You should have a grease seal with ID of 2.25", inner bearing ID of 1.75" and outer bearing ID of 1.25". Please let me know if you have something different otherwise here is a list of all the parts you will need. Kodiak Disc Brakes...

  • Recommended Solution to Protect Bearings From Water on Boat Trailer
    The Kodiak # XLPROLUBE2440 is designed to replace the body and cap for a Kodiak XL ProLube oil bath hub. Since you are using grease and have a Dexter axle, it sounds like you have an EZ Lube axle with a zerk fitting for adding grease and a grease cap plug on the end. Assuming that is the case, you do not want to use the # XLPROLUBE2440. Instead, I recommend adding Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors like the # BB2441SS or the threaded # BB2441T-SS. These are specifically designed for marine...
