E-Z Lube-Compatible Hub for Simple Lubrication

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.


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.


Bolt Pattern - Even

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.)


Bolt Pattern - Odd

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.)


Bolt Pattern Side

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"

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.

One call to Kimberly at etrailer and I got exactly what I needed for my 1988 boat trailer perfect fit all new assembly pre greased ready to install



by:

I was amazed at all the helpful information (measuring, correct bearing size etc.), with videos when searching for the correct hub replacements for my 1999 Bass Tracker - Trailstar Trailer which has the EZ lube Dexter axle.

The shipping was great and everything arrived as it should. The boxing was heavy duty and did it's job. I have to say I was amazed at the spot on shipping and customer service from start to finish. etrailer.com has my business from now on.

Great replacement for my aluma trailer. Help finding it was great also.

Awesome product, fits like it should! Came with everything for a full hub, did not come with castle-nut or cotter-pin but can re-use the old nut and pick up a new pin at a hardware store. Great customer service, quick shipping, great price.

The rubber seals to hold the grease in are a bit dodgey though after just being exposed to sunshine... they are starting to crack and dry out, which to me means they are a very inexpensive and cheap quality rubber.I havent had to adjust the bearings yet, so happy overall. Note they were installed on a 25 year old trailer so really was helpful to extend the life even further.



by:

Installed the new hubs yesterday on my Triton snowmobile trailer.
These are the OEM hub for my trailer and I wasn't happy with the replacement hubs which were installed as the EZ Lube feature of the axle was not working a it should.

It was real nice to order a complete high quality hub set at a great good price.

They fit Great and the EZ Lube hubs now work well.



by:

Hub assembly arrived as described. They fit as they should, and were very easy to install. The guys at etrailer.com helped ensure the parts were the exact replacement for the parts I wanted to replace. Great service, fast shipping, and great pricing.

I would buy from etrailer.com over and over and over again.



by:

Ordering on line was simply and easy. The company processed my order quickly and emailed me the tracking information. Unfortunately, UPS didn't scan the package, so tracking was useless. I called the company to make sure my ordered shipped. The customer service lady was polite and apologized for the inconvenience. She was able to tell me when my package should arrive. It arrived on schedule. The items I received were not damaged and were exactly what I ordered. Installation was a breeze. I am very happy with my purchase.



by:

I am very happy with service etrailer has provided me. I decided to tackle my trailer's hub and bearing replacement by myself. I started last weekend, took the down the correct bearing Serial numbers, came to the site, ordered the correct set of bearings and hubs, and they were delivered promptly this Thurs. Completed the replacement on both hubs just this morning. I found the "how to" videos this company provided extremely helpful. Thank you etrailer for providing me such a great experience.

by:

one quick phone call to etrailer and they confirmed what I needed which was a complete spindle assembly. The assembly arrived on time and fit perfectly. The online support videos showed me how to install the spindle and another quick call to tech support concerning mixing grease types and the installation went smooth! Thanks guys!



by:

Great Hubs fast shipping. When you buy a axle it should be noted that it fits your hubs only.

Thanks for your review, Richard - As long as the hub bearings and seal matches what the axle spindle calls for, the hubs do not have to be the hubs that we have on our site.

The axle is performing great. I have run it about 2000 miles and the tires are doing great. The original axle wore out a tire in 1000 miles. I am very pleased with this business and have told several people about it. THANKS



by:

Great product. Kit comes with everything needed to replace the Hub. Total install time was less then 10min and the new wheels matched up perfectly. The kit was just installed so no comment on the durability yet but everything appears to be made of good quality materials. Extremely fast shipping. Highly recommend this product as well and the distributer. Job well done all the way around.



by:

Received products quickly. Products were packaged well and free of damage. I used the website to research to make sure I obtained the right parts the first time. The videos were helpful and I liked they had the part number highlighted made ordering.



by:

Ordered for a spare hub for Tracker marine trailer for Fisher 1710 boat. Exact hub as original and a great price compared to local marine dealers or parts stores.



by:

Exactly what I ordered, it should be clear races are installed. Parts were loose in box but all there. I bought as emergency hub assembly for boat trailer. I did notice bearings are made in China that was my only concern for long term use.



by:

Great service. Hubs are working well. Hubs went on the Axles, without any craziness. Hubs are a great product.



by:

Was exactly what I need. Price was great. Expedited delivery showed up exactly as promised. Note that the hub and bearings come completely disassembled and ungreased. So you'll need to assemble it all on the spindle and grease the bearings.



by:

This organization is 1st rate. First, the shipping method was upgraded for free to a faster delivery, the item was an exact replacement for my existing hub with a different PN, and then the parts fit PERFECTLY. I would definitely buy from these guys again!



by:

All bearing and seal parts where delivered on time and worked perfectly on rebuilding wheel beatings



by:

Great and easy to lube bearings



by:

I made numerous phone calls because I was worried about ordering the wrong hub. These people were so patient and helpful and never got aggravated with all my questions. In the end, I received my hub very quickly, it went right on with little effort at all. One year later I've had no issues period. They got me back on the water quickly and I would recommend anyone use etrailers for any needs you may have!! Very polite and professional with high quality parts!



by:

Like everything else I purchased to try and resurrect my old boat trailer, these hubs fit perfectly and worked great. Thanks!!



by:

These are very well made hubs and they were packaged very carefully so as to be clean and ready for greasing and assembly. I have purchased a number of items from etrailer and every time they exceed my expectations.

  • Which Hubs Fit Dexter Axle T20BTR-EZ-7258
    The Dexter Trailer Idler Axle Beam with EZ-Lube Spindles # T20BTR-EZ-7258 that you referenced has a BTR spindle on it that takes a hub with an inner and outer bearing of L44649. For an idler hub you would want the part # 8-258-5UC1-EZ. Or if you want a brake drum you would want the part # 8-257-5UC3-EZ. Both of these hubs will fit the trailer axle and have the 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern you are looking for.

  • Hub Recommendation for Folding Motorcycle Trailer with Bearings L44649
    If both of the bearings are L44649 (most likely they are) the correct hub you need is the part # 8-258-5UC1-EZ which will fit your spindle and also has a bolt pattern of 5 on 4-1/2 inches. The other way to verify the other bearing number is to measure the spindle where the bearings both ride. If they are both 1-1/16 inch like you mentioned this hub will fit.

The spindle that's compatible with this size hub is the BTR E-Z Lube Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles - 1-1/4" Diameter # TRU44FR.
