Determining the Bolt Pattern
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.
- If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
- If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
- If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
- If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

A year later they are still working great. I have around 6,000 miles on them, and have great brake stopping power.

Good fit, fast shipping.
by: Road Warrior11/04/2014
One of my trailer's four brake drums cracked which initiated a complete brake system inspection and repair. Having sourced supplies from e-trailer previously, I knew I could get everything I needed quickly and all would be superior quality. Surprisingly, it was more economical to do a complete brake assembly replacement on all four wheels rather than a selective piece/part upgrade on the 12 year old systems. An exact fit meant the whole job was done in a couple of hours.
by: Richard G.04/06/2019
These brake drums appear to be excellent quality parts, all genuine Dexter replacements. These are all Made in USA, replacing the ones on my trailer that are made in China. The reason for three stars is the drums were poorly packaged, causing light to moderate surface marking, and some paint removal. One of the drums also exhibited surface corrosion on the drum ID and armature surface, as well as the inner bearing recess. The drums were wrapped with a single sheet of brown paper, then shipped two per shipping carton, with no additional protection. The damage is not severe enough to warrant return of these heavy items, but I am disappointed in Etrailer's minimalistic packaging process.
by: Steve, Greeneville TN01/08/2018
Bad: Read the fine print on etrailer before you purchase. I paid with a debit card. It took 2 months for my hubs to be shipped. I thought they charged my card at the time of purchase. They charged 2 months later. This would of been OK if it were a credit card. They almost made me bounce a check by charging my debit card 2 months later. Ok, heres my mistake, I ordered the wrong thing. I am willing to pay the $28 shipping back to you. They charged $28 shipping and a fee of $38. My bill was $224. I was refunded $158. I will not do business with them again. Wonder if they will delete this comment.
Good: They are very polite.
by: Harry11/06/2017
Packaging was extensively torn up, and someone attempted to tape it back together. The contents were not packed tightly inside the boxes.
The parts were as ordered, and shipping time was as quoted.

Over all I am only giving the rating a 4 star due to the poor packaging. Had the order been something more fragile I question as to whether it would have arrived safely.
by: Curtis03/13/2019
Delivery was as promised. Quality of the Dexter hub/drum was excellent as expected. Great job eTrailer!

They painted the thread on the lugs. Had to find a die to clean them. Kind of a pain and not expected

- Width of Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly 5,200-lb Axles - 6 on 5-1/2 From Wheel Surface to End of HubI wasn't entirely sure where you were measuring but I went out to the warehouse to measure hub and drum # 8-201-5 for you. From the part of the hub that will be closest to the trailer out to the surface where the wheel mounts is approximately 4-1/2 inches. I have included a picture attempting to show this.

- Trailer Hub/Drum Recommendation to Replace 5,200 lb Dexter Idler HubThe Dexter Hub Drum part # 8-201-5 that you referenced will replace the 5,200 lb idler hub you have and would work well for adding brakes to your trailer using the assemblies you already have.
view full answer... - Hub and Drum Assembly for 6000 lb AxleGiven the information you have provided, the Trailer Hub and Drum, part # 8-201-5UC3 is what you are needing. This assumes that the brake assemblies you have are 12 inch. The bearings, cap, and seals are included with the Hub and drum. However, this hub wouldn't be compatible with a 15 inch wheel, which is what you were wanting because you already have a set of tires for a 15 inch wheel. You'll need to go up in size to a 16 inch wheel/tire combo. You'll want to choose a wheel/tire whose...

view full answer... - Trailer Hub Recommendation with Number 8-201We have the exact hub you are looking for as part number # 8-201-5UC3. This is a 5,200 lb axle hub that has a bolt pattern of 6 on 5-1/2 inch.
view full answer... - How to Determine Which Brake Drums and Brake Assemblies are Needed for Crossroads Toy HaulerThe brake drum you need will depend on the inside diameter and depth of your existing drums, as well as the inner and outer wheel bearing reference numbers and the wheel bolt pattern. To recommend the correct brake assemblies, I'd need to know whether your existing brake assemblies fasten to the brake mounting flange with 4 or 5 bolts. If you could reply with this information, I'd be happy to recommend specific parts for you. Unfortunately, I don't have any reference material that will...

- Do the Bearings Come Pre-Installed on the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-201-5UC3The bearings do not come pre-installed on the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-201-5UC3. You will need to first install the inner bearing and seal, slide the hub on and install the outer bearing. For more information on bearing installation and general hub removal and installation information check out the FAQ article I attached.
view full answer... - Will 14 inch Diameter Wheels fit on a 12 inch Hub and DrumWith 12x2 inch hub and drum assemblies like the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-201-5UC3 that you referenced the smallest diameter wheel that would work for you would be a 15 inch wheel. To see all the 15 inch wheels we offer with and without tires check out the link I attached.
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Convert Trailer from Hydraulic Drum Brakes to Disc BrakesChanging a trailer over from hydraulic drum brakes to hydraulic disc brakes requires both the new brake and hub/rotor assemblies that use your same bearing set, a new actuator, brake flanges and a brake line kit. The pressure rating of a drum brake actuator is lower than that of a disc brake type, generally 1000-1100 psi versus 1600 psi for a disc brake actuator. This is why the actuator needs to be changed. You will also need to select new hub/rotor assemblies that match the bearings used...
view full answer... - Replacement Hub for Homemade Trailer AxleIn order to determine which hub you need you will either need the bearing numbers from the bearings from your spindle, or you can take some precise measurements on the different steps on the spindle using a dial caliper to get precise measurements. In order to see what measurements are needed check out the picture to the right.

- Replacement Hub and Drum for a Dexter 8-133You will need to get the other bearing number from inside your current hubs before we can pick you out replacement hubs. Most likely the outer bearing you pulled is a LM67048 and the inner you have is a 25580 which would mean that the # 8-201-5UC3 would be the correct size hub and drum for you. This hub has a bolt pattern of 6 on 5-1/2 inch and would not work with your current wheels. I attached a page that has all of the wheels and tires we offer in that bolt pattern.
view full answer... - Smallest Rim Size the Hub part # 8-201-5UC3 Will FitThe smallest diameter the Hub part # 8-201-5UC3 that you referenced will fit is a 16 inch wheel. I attached a page that will take you to all of the 16 inch wheels we carry that will match the bolt pattern of this hub.
view full answer... - What is the Width of Dexter 8-201 Brake Drum?I believe you are essentially asking about the drum's width, and the drum on the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-201-5UC3 measures 2 inches wide. You can see this being measured in the linked video review that I've added for you.
view full answer... - Are The Races Pre-Installed On the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 5,200-lb AxlesYes, the races are pre-installed into the hub on the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 5,200-lb Axles part # 8-201-5UC3.
view full answer... - Are Dexter Hub and Drum Assemblies Sold Individually or in PairsThe Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 5200-lbs Axles # 8-201-5UC3 is sold as a single assembly, so you would need 2 of these for a single axle trailer, or 4 for tandem axle if you're replacing all of them.

view full answer... - Is the Dexter Hub 8-201-5UC3 Genuinely The Dexter BrandYes, The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-201-5UC3 is the genuine Dexter Hub and Drum assembly part K08-201-90. We do get the part directly from Dexter. Dexter does not manufacturer their bearings and seals for there hubs, but use the highest quality products from vendors with their products.
view full answer... - How to Pick Out a Trailer Hub and Drum and Then Brake Assembly to Fit ItThe hub part # 8-201-5UC3 is a 12 by 2 inch drum/hub that calls for a brake assembly that measures the same. The problem is that the 12x2 inch brake assemblies we carry are all 5-bolt flange assemblies. It would be pretty unlikely that the hub you mentioned would be the correct fit for a spindle that only has a 4 bolt flange so I wonder if maybe you need a different hub actually. In order to pick out the correct hub assembly for a trailer you are going to need know a few key pieces of...

- How to Select New Hub/Drums to Match Axle Rating, Bolt Pattern and Bearing SetOn Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-201-5UC3 the outer diameter of the hub center is 3-3/16-inches at the top/outer surface, tapering to 3-5/16-inches at the base near the hub face. These dimensions, which I took myself in our warehouse, are noted on the photo I prepared for you. Matching up new hubs requires you to confirm the axle weight rating, the wheel bolt pattern and the bearing set used in the hubs. For a hub to fit on your existing spindles it must use the same inner and...

- Possible Replacement Hub for Dexter Hub 8-133You will need to get the other bearing number from inside your current hubs before we can pick you out replacement hubs. Most likely the outer bearing you pulled is a LM67048 and the inner you have is a 25580 which would mean that the # 8-201-5UC3 would be the correct size hub and drum for you.

view full answer... - Should Mobile Home Axles be Replaced on TrailerIf you are trying to be cautious you'll need to replace the entire axle as mobile-home axles are only intended as one-time-use axles and anything beyond that is a risk. You are going to need to measure your current axles in a few places to get the correct one as we don't have access to what your numbers reference. You will need to measure from hub face to hub face and then from the spring seat centers. You will also need to know what bolt pattern you have on your current hubs. I attached...

- Idler Hub to Fit Trailer with 25580 and LM67048 BearingsHub and drum assembly # 8-201-5 will fit your spindles but like you said the bolt pattern is 6 on 5-1/2. We don't carry a hub that fits # 25580 inner bearing and # LM67048 outer bearing wth a 5 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern. With that pattern I'm guessing you have a mobile home axle. I recommend upgrading to the 6 lug hubs and replacing your wheels as well. Part # 8-201-5 is a hub and drum assembly and you mentioned you're looking for idler hubs. If you only need the idler with no brake drum...
view full answer... - Replacement Trailer Hub/Drum With 8-201 Casting Number On HubThe replacement hub/drum you mentioned, part # 8-201-5UC3 is rated for a 5200 lb axle (a de-rated 6000 lb axle). That particular hub/drum is compatible with a 25580 inner and a LM67048 outer wheel bearing. If your axle is indeed rated for 6K and uses a 25580 inner and 15123 outer wheel bearing. If that's the case, you'd need the # 8-201-9UC3-EZ hub/drum. The different outer bearing is what de-rates the hub. The hubs include the races, bearings, grease seals, lug nuts and grease caps compatible...
