Thoroughly Tested for Safety
This hub-and-drum assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This assembly has also been tested by QAI for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.
E-Z Lube and Easy Grease-Compatible Assembly for Simple Lubrication
The grease cap on this hub-and-drum assembly is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube or etrailer Easy Grease 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.
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"

Hubs matched to my original Dexter hubs. The prices was more than 50% less than Dexter axles; well worth the savings.
Bearings came installed; made installation a breeze. Slide them on and put on retaining washer, nut and retaining bracket.
I’d buy them again (today) will re-evaluate in a year.

This is the trailer I built using your spindles and electric brakes.
It towed beautifully from Texas to Kansas City and back for the World of Wheels.
by: Robert08/31/2022
Easily installed... Pre-greased bearing... Should have come with new axel nut, cotter key and bearing washer, but didn't.. Used old ones...

Purchased a used 2016 Keystone Hideout Trailer and wanted to be sure it was safe going down the road. These four assemblies were clean, packaged well and fit as expected. We will be headed out to campsite next month and will update this review ONLY if their is a discrepancy, otherwise, we are very satisfied with our etrailer purchase.
by: Jeffrey02/12/2024
Pleased with the quality of these hub/drum assemblies. Bearings were nicely pre-greased. Kit comes with solid bearing hub covers and bearing buddy types with removable rubber grease plugs...your choice.
by: Jeffery03/28/2024
One of the lug nuts was damaged and could not be used. I would like a cotter pin and a flat washer included in this assembly.

Product replaced OEM part exactly. product was fully lubed as advertised. Installation was simple.
by: Donald 02/12/2024
I think your a great company but my hub drum assembly was a little out of round.
This is probably from storage by the manufacturer.
Have great day! Don
by: John03/28/2024
I haven't received my leaf springs at the same time. I ordered them within minutes of each other. So I have to wait until next week now. Once I get things together I can make an accurate assessment. Probably the only gripe of mine is that I have to wait now. Thanks for the follow up.

Fast service. Help us work through getting good replacement parts. Thank you.
by: Shannon04/29/2018
I ordered the hub and idler set, my trailer came with 15x5 hubs and I ordered 15x4.5 rims. Since they wouldn't return my rims I ordered the correct hubs from etrailer. Got my box only had one seal slightly damaged. Installing was a breeze and happy with my purchase... Website was very user friendly as my first plan was to do a 6lug but I talked myself out of it. Thanks etrailer good job, nice company to deal with.

I ordered an easy grease trailer hub and drum assembly to replace the one on my 14 foot cargo trailer which was damaged by a defective magnet. The one I ordered fit perfectly. Since it came pre-greased, it saved quite a bit of time because I did not have to pack the bearings and press in the seal.
by: Brian07/10/2023

drums and brakes went together perfectly. Amy J was a big help.
by: Mike06/03/2017
This is my second order. I ordered for the rear axle first. The parts looked good. So ordered for the other axle. The seals are robust and double seal design. But the bearing are China bearings. Would have liked to seen timkin or the like but are serviceable. The break kit fit well and looks good. We will see how they do on my 2500 mile round trip thru the mountains with a small truck loaded on it. The operators both times were very friendly and knowledgeable about their products. Keep up the good work and I'll keep buying!

Put about 3000 miles with zero issues. They performed better than expected. I have ordered several items since then and the operators are all knowledgeable and all ways willing to do what they can to ensure a proper order and that Im satisfied with my order

13,737 miles to Fairbanks from Ft. Myers and bank, still going good.
by: Allen09/11/2023
Received the hubs very quickly. They were well greesed and ready to go. They look well machined. I did have one lug nut that had something wrong with the threads. I might could have used it, but since it would not thread on by hand I did not want to try it since it might damage the stud. I went on line and did a chat with etrailer. Thier customer service is top rated. They shipped me out another lug nut. This is why I do business with etrailer. They understand the needs of the customer and understand the products they sell.
I installed the hubs this weekend and took the trailer for a test pull. Needed to adjust the brakes up a little, but all was well.
by: David 02/07/2024
Service was great and the shipping was fast. As always etrailer out performs its competitors.
by: Walter 07/23/2023
Perfect fit for the corresponding e-trailer brake assembly. Even comes with lug nuts, but I didn’t use them because they are a size up from whats on the rest of my trailer wheels. Same thread, just different lug wrench size. Personally, e-trailer, I’d forgo including the lug nuts and instead, include the mounting hardware with your e-trailer brake assemblies.

- Help Finding Replacement Trailer Brake Assembly for 10 x 1-3/4The 10" x 1-3/4" trailer braking assemblies are no longer available therefore you'll have to upgrade to a more common size, 10" x 2-1/4" which will offer more stopping power. This however means you'll need to replace the hubs/drums as well. I recommend using the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # 23-468-469 with the etrailer Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K.
view full answer... - Replacement Wheel Studs for Roadmaster Tow DollyRoadmaster doesn't sell the wheel studs as a separate item, just as a hub assembly. The hub assembly is available as a special order, but as I was told, it's pretty expensive. I did some research and found that the Roadmaster # RM-2050-1 uses a standard 3500 lb10 inch brake drum like # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K. If the holes for the wheel studs aren't wallowed out, you can use the # 7-122 replacement stud which is standard for a 3500 lb 10 inch brake drum, and would work fine for you.
view full answer... - Upgrading Trailer Brakes on a Single Axle Trailer With Heavy Duty Self Adjusting BrakesThe etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes # AKEBRK-35-SA will allow you to upgrade to self-adjusting brakes on your Lippert LCI35 axle. These are the same size as your current drums so as long as they are in good condition you would not have to change to 2 of the Hub/Drums # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K. If you are really wanting to improve your brakes to be the best you should consider Disc Brakes # DE66YR. Disc brakes are far superior and easier to maintain than drum brakes as well. To make this conversion...
view full answer... - Trailer Hubs Are Warmer On One Side Of the Trailer Than the OtherIf the bearings have been packed properly using a bearing packer and they have then been filled properly then my guess is that either the spindle nut has too much torque or that the spindle is bent. The spindle nut will only need to be hand tight until snug, with no side-to-side play in the hub and then backed off slightly. Once this is checked I would then remove the hubs altogether and have the spindle checked for misalignment or irregularities on the surface. If you have a tire wear...

- How To Find Correct Hub/Drum Replacements for Four Winns TrailerIn order to choose the correct replacement hub/drum for a trailer you'll need to know the axle capacity which is usually found on an tag in the center of the beam. Once this is obtained you'll also need to know the bolt pattern. The etrailer Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K for example is for 3,500 lbs axles and has a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern. This is one of the most common hub/drum replacements.

Everything works fine until you run maximum amperage through the system by turning on the running lamps. With the maximum amperage running through the system, if there's a ground problem, that's when it'll show up. Begin on the vehicle side. Make sure the ground for the trailer connector is securely attached to the frame or chassis of the vehicle, and that it isn't corroded. Next, on to the trailer itself. Find the trailer...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Hubs That Will Not Rotate After Wheel InstallationIt sounds like you have proper fit of your hubs on your spindles and that when you rotate the drum alone (without the wheel mounted) everything seems okay, but when you bolt the wheel on to the hub you have binding somewhere. The two potential causes are that the tires are rubbing on some part of the trailer, such as a leaf spring or inside wheel well. Any given hub will be compatible with a specific range of wheel diameters. For example, hub # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K works with wheel diameters...
view full answer... - Replacement Hub/Drums and Brake Assemblies for 3500 lb AxleThe 8-247 casting number you provided indicates you have a standard 10 inch hub/drum which is typical for a 3500 lb axle. Assuming your existing hub/drums have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern, the # 8-247-50UC3-EZ hub/drum would work fine for you, but for a car hauler you really don't need a galvanized hub. Instead, I'd recommend the # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K as a much more affordable option that includes the bearings, races, grease seal, dust cap for both standard and EZ Lube spindles and lug...

I recommend replacing them with the etrailer.com Self Adjusting 10-inch electric brake assembly # AKEBRK-35L-SA (left hand) and # AKEBRK-35R-SA (right hand). The axle rating is 3,500 pounds and these brake assemblies automatically adjust to provide superior braking performance. I included a video review and installation video for you too.

On the linked page you can view all hub/drums for trailers with drum brakes that carry the same 3500-lb axle weight rating, use the same 5-on-4-1/2 bolt pattern and use the same set of bearings, inner bearing # L68149 and outer bearing # L44649. Any new hub has to use the same bearings as your old one in order for it to fit on your spindles. An example is part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K. These...

This would easily install on your trailer and be all that you need aside from 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 which is sold by the foot to wire the assemblies to the trailer wiring connector.

It is best to remove one of your hubs as this will allow you to measure for the bearings and grease seal and be able to verify you have a Brake Flange # 4-35 for the brake assemblies to mount. A 3,500lb axle will have a Grease Seal # 58846(ID 1.719" / OD 2.565"), Inner Bearing # L68149(ID 1.378") and Outer Bearing # L44649(ID 1.063"). If this matches what you have you will need...

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...

view full answer... - Replacement Hub/Drum Assembly and Brake Assembly for 2017 Rockwood Mini Lite Travel TrailerAccording to Dexter, your axle uses a # L44649 outer and # L68149 inner bearing with a # 58846 grease seal. This means you can use the Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K you were looking at. This also has the same 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern you have now. For brakes that match you will need a 10" - 2-1/4" brake assembly. I recommend the Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-35-SA. These are self adjusting so they will always remain properly aligned. For mounting hardware,...
