Specs:
The grease cap on this hub is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube axle to make lubricating bearings quick and easy. Just remove the plug on the grease cap, attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle, and inject the grease. It will flow easily to both inner and outer bearings. Not only does this make lubricating the bearings easy, but it also helps to prevent corrosion of the hub. This is because you can lubricate the bearings without the mess of taking apart the entire assembly.
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: "8 on 6-1/2" means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: "5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.
Note: Some axles rated at 2,000 lbs require a different seal and bearings. Be sure that the bearings in the hub being replaced have L44649 stamped on them. If the bearings have L44643 stamped on them, use 8-258BTUC1 trailer hub.
Note: Trailer wheels that are smaller than 15" and have 5 bolts, have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern.

perfect fit, now the boat can get to the lake again!!! dont forget to order the castle nut kit parts came in when they said they would, will be my go to guys for trailer stuff in the future
This hub assembly was exactly what I needed to update/upgrade my trailer. No missing pieces, which is always a plus. This assembly and some axle grease lengthened the life of the trailer. Another DIY project completed and in use.
Larry K - 02/20/2018Was rebuilding a jet ski trailer to carry a kayak. I order several parts to include these new hubs. The hubs were great, but the seals were to large for my spindles. Talked to customer service and they shipped me new seals for no additional charge!
Julie - 09/02/2019Order arrived early and items were packaged well. Easy installation. etrailer is awesome to work with!
I bought a bearing kit for my utility trailer. Parts arrived on time and the cost was considerably expensive than what I found locally. After a year of use, all is well! The trailer is used continuously and I have had zero problems with the new bearings.
Griz - 10/21/2017My original hub cracked after I tried to install a replacement wheel bolt. Went up to E trailer and found the replacement hub VERY easily. Their tutorial video also clarified which wheel bearing I should have since the same hub is used in two different weight classes.
UPS ground package came in two days, way ahead of what I was expecting.
It was easier and faster than trying to locate in my area that could order it for me.
This is the second time I have purchased items from E trailer and have nothing but praise for their efforts.
Fit my seadoo boat trailer perfectly. The video on the page was very helpful and the parts a great quality. Dust cap was un useable because it was damaged (possibly from shipping ) the only thing that would make this kit better is if it was pre greased and came with a new pin.
Overall I'm very happy with it. Shipping came exactly the day they said even in a rain storm. Had updates along the way .
Will definitely use them again in the future for all my trailer needs !
The item was exactly what I ordered. My only concern was that the tires I had on my trailer were 13", and the hubs are labeled as for only 8 to 12" wheels. It didn't make any difference. It was the exact part and replacement that I needed using the old part number scribed into the back of the old hub. Thanks for a great match!
received the Dexter Hub ready for complete installation. Seems like a good value but havent installed it long enough to make any comment about the quality. The original hub stripped 4 of the 5 wheel studs when I tried to remove the wheel , and had to grind the back of the studs off to get the wheel seperated from the hub.
i was impressed with the speed that my order arrived. The tech was very helpful when the order was placed. I was disappointed that the bearing buddy was only a metal cylinder and did not contain a spring and zert fitting for continuous greasing. One of the packages was missing a black dust cover. One of the so called bearing buddies was bent. One of the spindles had a three eights inch area that was not polished. It looks like a tool broke during manufacturing or a possible defect during the pouring process.
I have a relatively lengthy trip coming up and wanted to have a spare hub with me should a problem develop in route. The offering was comprehensive but I did elect to remove an existing hub to be assured that I knew the actual bearing ID's. That done, selecting the right hub was easy. The price appeared appropriate and I placed an order. The hub was delivered ahead of schedule and in good condition. My only concern is that the hub and bearings were delivered without having been pre packed with grease. Not a deal breaker but it would have been nice. I will likely buy another hub in the spring.

Product looks good, shipping was very fast. etrailer was very easy to work with. The instruction video lacked a bit of detail regarding how hard to tap in the inner grease seal (first hub I've ever replaced). I'm still a bit unclear on this...
Thanks to Tara G my snowmobile trailer is ready to go. Sledding in Wisconsin today. Couldn't be happier.
Product was delivered on time with no defects. But the best thing was the technical support that was provided. I have made many more purchases after this one and etrailer.com will always be the first place that I shop for trailer parts
Excellent delivery time, hubs and accessories fit perfect. Installed and been using the set for a year with no issues. Thanks for the service with your company!!!!
I recently needed tires for my snowmobile trailer. The selection I found at Etrailer was excellent with great prices. I ordered the tires on Saturday night and was amazed to see the tires show up on Tuesday morning. The communication was great too. This is a great company to deal with. I look forward to another purchase.
This was my second order with etrailer. Ultimately pleased with the product on both occasions, however, one of the bearing shipped looked like someone smashed it with a hammer.
I'm sure etrailer would have taken care of me had I made a complaint, but I just used an old bearing from the original hub. Problem solved.
Hub fit perfect and it was nice that both race's were already installed in the hub. Replacement went smoothly. Bearings fit my axle smoothly unlike a set of bearing I purchased at an automotive store.
Trailer Hub Assembly's and wheel tire combo's were shipped extremely fast and everything looks perfect to replace badly rusted and worn parts on my snowmobile trailer.
Hub itself is well made. Accompanying bearings are made in China. Races pre-installed. One race had a rusty nodule and left a rusty pit when removed. Out with the crap and in with Timkens. Price is great, but I suspect some would be willing to pay more if it came w/ Timken or SKF bearings.
Ordered idler hubs on a Wednesday and they were on my porch Thursday afternoon. Tim M upgraded my shipping at no extra charge. Parts fit great, I won’t have to worry about bearings anymore.
I enjoy doing business with etrailer .... they have great service . I had received some damaged parts and they were very quick to send me out replacement parts .
Awesome delivery speed and service! I had ordered the wrong part and was able to return it and order the correct part with no issues. My project was replacing hubs on my 2004 Sled Bed trailer which has had a irritating vibration since I bought it new. New hubs fixed the vibration! Thank you!!
