got just what i needed in great time. well done

I could not maintain my teardrop trailer without the knowledge base at etrailet.

I would pay a little more for USA made products.

these are good bearings, super-fast shipping. These guys help you find what you need



by:

Excellent product, price, and service!

This rating is for the packaging only, shipped very poorly with no protection. four sets of bearings thrown in a box,
Had to return. (photo enclosed).

What sets e-trailer apart from just about everyone else is their outstanding customer service and support, both before, and after the sale. This order here was just a simple, inner bearing for my Jayco camper. I did have to contact Lippert - the company that makes my axle to ensure this would fit (and it does). I am ordering parts now as I need them from E-trailer instead of the manufacturer. While it's a bit unfortunate that it's so hard to know for sure what will fit and what wont without doing legwork yourself, I understand why that's just the way it is. Their shipping is quite a bit faster, prices are fair. I am happy to endorse etrailer and have additional orders in the queue already.



by:

Thank you for taking care of my order



by:

The bearing it average, I trailer my boat 60 miles each way alway making sure problems free. in 6months fishing season I remove hubs to inspected bearing 3 time adding more fresh marine grease check those bearing found after the 3th trips bearing start to make little noise not what I expected and the price higher than some company’s yes this year 2023 I did switch out different manufacture.

Want to help out the next customer looking for the bearing, cups, and seals for 2000-01 tracker trailstar trailer. 1st you have to dismantle one of the hubs and see what trailstar decided to put in there the day they built it. You will find the rear cups and seals are considered "Special for some reason". Not a problem for etrailer, they have them in stock and the quality is excellent and are exact replacements. The parts I had to order were cup L68110, cup L44610, seal 168233, bearing L68149 and bearing L44649. Oh yeah, customer service should get a 10 star review. I had an issue with shipping co. because of new driver in my area. Etrailer got all up in their business for me and I didn't have to do anything. Customer service also called me the next day to see if everything was delivered and satisfactory. We need more companys like etrailer.com . Excellent!!

by:

China bearing. Probably ok for a trailer. Again, just thrown in a box. No individual packaging.



by:

I put these bearings on a 21 ft travel trailer. The original bearings were poorly greased and got too hot. With these bearings and a good quality grease these bearings never overheated even with driving in hilly terrain with frequent breaking. Definitely recommend!



by:

I had a hub and bearing go out on a boat trailer going down the road. Tried matching separate parts locally, but were not available. Was able to order all the parts from etrailer at one time. They had on hand and shipped right away. Parts were exactly what I was looking for. Perfect fit. Now if I would have known that the other side would have failed in the next 12 months I would have done them all at the same time.



by:

Don't do what I did...spend 2 weeks trying to find the right parts locally, and end up trying to use a 67 Chevy seal on a 2002 boat trailer...it doesn't work. Just order the right stuff from etrailer.com and save yourself a lot of time, money, and hassle. If you just absolutely have to go the auto parts store, their brake cleaner is pretty handy for removing grease from the trailer parts without removing the paint.



by:

Bearings and seals in stock, delivered fast and exactly what I needed. Thank You for your great customer service..... ready to transport my boat 1000 miles to Florida....Jim

Product arrived faster than anticipated. Haven't actually installed yet, but quality looks good. They are Chinese but what isn't. I could have paid three times the price for the same thing locally. I've already recommended Etrailer to a friend. Thanks.

I could not be happier,

What a
diiference to have not just good brakes, but great brakes. Plus, the install was so easy, all the hardware was a perfect fit, instructions were right on the money (btw, I'm a retired engineer from a nuclear plant and I wrote procedures, so I'm picky) Anyway, towed the boat 1,000 miles and what a reassuring feeling to know that the equipment is in good working order and does the job when called upon.

I'm attaching a couple of pictures so you can see what I did.

Thanks again, I will be using etrailer in the future anytime I need something, feel free to pass on my comments



by:

Bearings are equivalent to the ones that you'll buy at any local trailer shop, however they were included with the specific brake drums that I purchased from etrailer so it was a no brainer! I needed them and they did the trick. I have done many bearing repacking jobs, however for the first timer, etrailer offers great videos on how to pack, install and tighten bearings. I watched the videos just for the heck of it and I can say they offer good solid advice.

  • Replacement Hub, Bearings, and Grease Seal for 3,500 lb Dexter Axle
    You are correct that is a 3,500 lb axle. If you want a bearing kit the # BK2-100 you looked at is the right one. This comes with a # L44649 outer and # L68149 inner bearing along with a # 58846 (10-19) grease seal. If you want a replacement idler hub you can use the # AKIHUB-655-35-K or for a hub and drum assembly the # AKHD-655-35-K. Both of these have a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern.

  • Can I Add Electric Brakes To A 1993 EZ Loader Boat Trailer
    Hello Mike. It sounds like you are wanting to add electric brakes to your boat trailer that currently has no brakes. This is possible, but you will first need to make sure that your axle is equipped with a brake flange at the base of the spindle. The brake flange is necessary for adding brakes. If you do have a brake flange, you will next need to determine your bearing sizes. Electric brakes will require new hubs and drum assemblies, and we need to be sure that there is a drum available...

    Thanks to the information and picture you provided I can definitely help. The replacement for your Dexter 8-248 is the # 84545BX. If you want a pre-greased option you can use the # 84545UC1-EZ. If you don't care about it being from Dexter the # AKIHUB-545-35-G-K you were looking at will also work. These all fit a standard 3,500 lb axle with # L68149 inner and # L44649 outer bearings.

    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...

If you have the VIN you or I can contact EZ Loader to verify the correct bearings and seals used on your current hubs or you can pull a hub off and get the part numbers off the parts.

    It looks like PacWest has a number of different utility trailers with different capacities.

You could check your axle tag for identification and call PacWest or you could use your VIN number. The other option is to pull off your existing hubs and see which bearings you have now.

    First you are going to want to confirm the bearings, grease seal and cap used on your axles. Some older and boat specific 3,500lb axles use different size seals and caps. The Kodiak XL ProLube Kit # XLPROLUBE1980KIT you found fits the standard 3,500lb axle sizes. The grease cap fits a 1.98" hub bore and the included seal fits a 1.72" spindle landing for the seal.

Due to the Aluminum frame, I recommend putting a thin rubber pad between the steel mount and the aluminum I-beam.

  • How To Find Correct Replacement Bearings and Hub for Outback Trailer with AL-KO Axles
    I have a few options for you to help with identifying the bearings on your trailer. The first and easiest method would be to crawl under the trailer and look for the axle tag on the beam. This should give an axle capacity which we can then use to find the bearings based off industry standards. For example, a 3,500 lb axle uses L68149 and L44649 bearings like what comes with the Hub Bearing Kit for Lippert, Dexter, and Al-Ko Axles part # BK2-100 or the Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly...

  • Replacement Grease Seal for 4400-lb Lippert Trailer Axle

  • Replacement Hub for a UFP H-1377 on a 2004 Tahoe Boat Trailer
    The UFP H-1377 correlates to a Dexter #84 spindle, which is for a 3,500 pound axle. This will utilize an inner bearing # L68149 and an outer bearing # L44649. As this is being used on a boat trailer, I highly suggest going with the etrailer.com # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K. This is galvanized and will be the best option available for your trailer. This also includes both the inner and outer bearings, the grease seal, the grease cap, and the lug nuts.

    While the # L68149 most likely corresponds to the inner bearing number of your hubs. If this is the case, you have either a 3.5k or a 4.4k axle. In order to know absolutely sure, you need to know the corresponding outer bearing number or the inner and outer diameter of the grease seal. You most likely need to wipe away the grease in order to reveal the outer bearing number. In order to accomplish this, I recommend using calipers like the 4" Carbon Fiber Digital Caliper # PTW80157.

Replacement hubs that have these specs typically use a # L68149 inner bearing and # L44649 outer bearing, as well as inner race # L68111 , outer race # L44610 and grease seals with inner diameter of 1.719" and outer diameter of 2.565".

They are designed for different size hubs, but can use the same # L68149 bearing. There may not be a pre-packaged kit with the L68110 race, but you can still get all the parts you need separately.

For boat trailers, where the motors are at the rear, you will usually see brakes on the rear axle. I have attached a great article that details everything you will need to install...
