Features:
Specs:
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.

Today we're gonna take a look at the pre-greased trailer idler hub assembly for 2000 pound axles, with the four on four inch bolt pattern. Now this trailer hub assembly, will fit on a 2000 pound, idler axle with the BT8 spindles. This one's nice, it's a nice pre-greased idler hub assembly, so it makes it very easy to install. You don't have to mess around packing your bearings with grease. These that come all ready to go, and the grease they use, it's heavy duty grease for Marine applications. Now, this does include the inner and outer bearings.
All pre-greased , ready for installation. The bearing races are pre installed onto the hub, and let me just pop this off, and you can see there's the grease seal, that's already pressed in ready to go. It has these covers on it to keep the grease in there. Also includes the four 1/2 inch x 20 size lug nuts, and it gives you the two different grease caps.It gives you this standard closed center cap for a standard axle, and it also gives you the easy lube center cap. With the rubber center plug that can be removed to fit on easy lube axles.
So both of those will come with this kit. This idler hub is a sturdy iron construction. They do use a zinc enriched paint on it, to add durability, and is says QAI and CSA certified. Application again, this is for 2000 pound axles, with the BT8 spindles. It is compatible with standard and easy lube axles from most manufacturers, including Dexter, Lippert and AL-KO.
The bolt pattern I mentioned, is a four on four inch bolt pattern. Wheel stud diameter is a half an inch. The grease cap flange diameter on both grease caps, is 1.99 inches. And the weight capacity on this idler hub, is 1000 pounds. So when this is used with one on the other side of the axle, it'll meet your 2000 pound axle capacity.Now, the bearings that are included, the inner bearing is a part number L44643.
It has a one inch inner diameter. And the outer bearing is also the same part number L44643 with the one inch inner diameter. The grease seal that's installed in this as a part number 34823. It has an inner diameter of 1.25 inches. Outer diameter of 1.99 inches. But, that should do it for the review on the pre-greased trailer idler hub assembly, for 2000 pound axles, with the four on four inch bolt pattern.

Hub is designed for use on trailer idler axles. Fits 2,000-lb axles with BT8 spindles. Inner bearing (L44643) and race, outer bearing (L44643) and race, grease seal, grease cap, and lug nuts included.Cheap price. Lightning fast shipping. Great product. The only thing that could make it better is if it came with the outer washer an cotter pin but no biggie. They're like 80 cents each so I could just run to the hardware storev an grab some. Fitment was spot on thanks dust cap was a little tough to get on but I just slbent the sides a little an she went right on. 615075
After toasting a set of bearings in my old hubs on a light boat trailer, I decided to go ahead and replace the whole set. My old hubs didn't have studs / lugnuts, so this was a great upgrade. Everything worked fine replacing on a BT8 spindle, except I had to replace the washer between the outer bearing and castle nut with a thinner washer. The SW1000 washer was too thick and wouldn't allow cotter pin to be installed. Would recommend to a friend! 464284
We purchase literally hundreds of these hub assemblies. We are a manufacturer of turf renovation machinery. We purchase the best equipment we can find at a competitive price. These units are consistently quality hubs, never a single unit that had any defects. You can easily spend twice the money and not gain anything for the extra money spent. Nice to have quality products, quick delivery and reasonable pricing consistently. 563766
For those who has the Harbor Freight 62645 (40-1/2? x 48?) utility trailer that has the .98**" shaft and 1.181" (30mm) seal shaft . Yes this is your hub, just need to replace the kit seal with a National 473426 seal. For my purpose, changing from the 4.80-12 4 ply to a 145R12 10 ply tires I used 1" 4"x4" wheel spacers. The wheel studs was to long, so I purchased and installed the (K12WB169) Kodiak Wheel Bolt - 1/2 Diameter X 1-7/10 Long. Perfect fit! This kit has a little bit heavier bearings, so the castle nut may have to filed a little bit to get the cotter in, due to the so called Chinese precision notches. No one locally have a replacement castles nuts. I will replace these a later when I find better quality ones. 471218
Great products and prices. These 3,500 lb brake drum/hubs appear to be well made and will be used to complete a new axle I've had a few years to construct a tandem axle trailer. I plan to order more of these for other axles as well. The 4 lug X 4" BC hubs are also well made and will be used on a hydraulic log splitter and small yard waste dump trailer to replace one-piece wheel hubs. This will allow me to use some surplus 8" tires on 4 lug wheels I have left over from some small trailer projects. 463326
The products were perfect and brought my 25 year old trailer back to new! The most wonderful part of the repair was talking to Carla at the help desk. I could not reach a comfort level as to which bearing/seal/hub kit to buy and she was exceedingly patient in having me measure mic clearances and direct me to etrailer's appropriate web sites so we could both see and talk about the same thing. Then, when I was 99% sure of the right kit, I expressed concern about one measurement that HAD to be correct or I would be shipping it all back. This was not available in the product description so she offered to go find the kit, get the measurement and call me back! Measurement confirmed! I ordered and have now installed. Carla went above and beyond.......thank you Carla and thank you etrailer! Joe in Oregon 573939
This was everything I needed to replace the bearings and hubs on a 4X8 utility trailer except the grease and cotter-pin. No issues with quality; no issues with parts not fitting. Everything I needed was in the box, and etrailer even had a useful video to show me how to replace it all. Total time to replace the hubs was about an hour, and most of that was packing the new bearings and cleaning off 30 years of grease from my trailer axles. No issues/ no problems. First rate product at an unbeatable price. 571289
Had a cracked hub on a kayak trailer build. Heard about e trailer and wow. What I needed I also had to pay shipping but even then the hubs was 20 a piece cheaper online and 30 a piece cheaper than local. These hubs was upgrade so I don’t have to fight bolts when putting wheel on. Great price and product. I am hooked on getting all my stuff from them in the future. They even threw in the quicker shipping with no additional cost to me. You can see what I had and got in the pictures 539155
Overall product quality is pretty good for the price , no issues with casting or bearings which is what counts . Dust covers are the usual stamped steel so there is a pretty good burr lip that needs a bevel to help start it inside the hub bore - just be aware of it and it makes the job much easier . I used these hubs to do a conversion on a garden tractor - going from very small lightweight ball bearing stamped style 1" inside flanged push-in type to trailer hubs and 8" - 4 bolt trailer rims - can't say enough about how much better this upgrade works and much more serviceable on my old Wheel Horse . For those running a loader on the larger garden tractors this upgrade is a must unless you like buying new wheel bearings constantly - this conversion will last a lifetime if cared for properly . E-Trailer is always great at answering questions and will help with dimensions if you ask - that is priceless in today's world of non-support retailers , wish other outlets would handle customer service like E-Trailer . I won't hesitate for a second to buy needed parts from these guys - good pricing , fast shipping and details that others won't take the time to include with product listings . Got my trailer brake controllers for both trucks , several other build parts to wire my trailer for a full 7-wire system including fused power feed and reverse lights - thrilled with everything I've ever bought from them . Will be back in the future , that's for sure . Sarge 320096
Excellent - love the upgrade and share how I did it with others on the forums

Wore out pretty fast. Made in China for sure 729003
Price was competitive and appropriate Product arrived earlier than anticipated, packaged well, and of good quality Shipping costs were better than competitors that I researched **Customer service was fantastic; I ordered the wrong hub inner diameter and they were able to send me the correct diameter hub in the mail within a couple of days. Person I spoke with was knowledgeable, polite, sincere. 728969
At etrailer.com they really do have great products at low prices. The galvanized wheel and tire package is holding up well after a year of use and neglect. No sign of rust, tires stay up. That's refreshing. 728582
Product itself was fine. The hub that I needed is about a half inch shorter (a short hub 3.5") than what etrailer sell in a 4 bolt pattern. To have it machined to fit would cost more than the hub itself. So I have a hub I cant use, yet. And its not worth sending back. Etrailer rep was kind and said they where trying to get more short hub selection, but I haven't seen it yet. I still shop at this site. 727819
Great hub assy. I used these hubs to replace out of date hubs on my Tee Nee trailer. Could not find seals to fit the old hubs. Like how the new hubs were pregreased and had caps to keep the hubs clean.. Very good price, cheaper than the bearings and seal to fix old hubs. 727612
Great service. Great videos for learning. Great product. Went on perfect. I’m glad I watched the video , because I ordered the wrong hubs the first time. 726502
Good product fit right and has held up well. Use on a firewood trailer which can be heavy. 722634
These new hubs were just what the doctor ordered to repair my utility trailer. The bearing failed in my old hub so it was easier just just to buy a whole new unit. Actually I bought two since it makes more sense to replace them in pairs. The best part was these hubs come pre-greased, and ready to install right out of the box. My only complaint, and it's not really a big deal since I knew this up front, was a new cotter pin is not included. My suggestion would be to include a new cotter pin, but otherwise these hubs were great. 721663
Just installed the new hubs on my boat trailer and they were an excellent fit. Had a problem getting one of the old bearings off because they were in such a bad shape, but everything is good now. Great products from etrailer. 719754
I built a small trailer to hall my wet saw for my tile business and couldn't find hubs . etrailer had just what I needed at a great price! Thanks etrailer! 719144

Excellent Service 703762
The hubs fit perfectly but the caps were impossible to put on. 700535
Ordered hubs,tires and lights all quality material shipped and received within 3 days and cheaper then [other on-line retailer] 696212
This product is excellent. I have paid twice as much for an inferior product. I hope my completion doesn't find out about these hubs. only issue is the packaging is not quite enough if you order multiple. Hole in the box, thankfully didn't lose any. 692783
Needed hubs for 1958 TEE NEE boat trailer, the old hub was blown apart making it difficult to identify, I called their number and spoke with Donna. You don't often come across a parts rep as personable, experienced and professional, as she guided me to the proper hub set needed. I waited on the review until I had the opportunity to replace the hubs. Happy to say company communication was excellent, delivery was fast and everything fit perfectly and was fairly simple install. Thank you Donna! 691265
unbelievable delivery service. Exactly what I ordered, I would not hesitate to order anything from etrailer they know what they have and what you want. 679445
My trailer hauls a 1 ton boat thanks to the new modern hub,stud,and betting sets I ordered from you coutious. service fast delivery and quality all in one place thank you and you will be getting a lot more of my business long into the future I won't go anywhere else. 678374
Only one thing gave me a problem with the install. I couldn’t get the hub caps on I think they are too big. I used the old hub caps and they went on nicely.Other than that like the product. 677743
My brother in law's old side delivery hay rake broke down. The carrier bearings and housing for the rake teeth bars and carrier assembly were totally gone. This thing is probably from the 50's and parts no longer are available. I looked it over and figured that a trailer hub and spindle shaft could be modified as a replacement. Ordered a 4 on 4 hub and a 1.25" spindle from etrailer. The parts were in my hand in 46 hours and as of today the rake is back in operation. Turned out to be a pretty easy fix since the 1.25 spindle fit perfectly into the old mount and just had drill a retaining pin hole and had to cut off about 3/4 " of the weld end of the spindle to get the correct spacing. The lug bolts fit snuggly into the hole from the original bearing housing which helped line up the assembly. All I had to do was fabricate a round plate with holes for the hub's lug bolts which was then bolted to the larger wheel which carries the rake teeth bars. 677710
Very friendly service people. I needed help with an order that I placed and the service person took care of it right away. The shipping was fast . The products that order were good quality products. I would buy from etrailer again. 677573
Products was perfect! Delivery was perfect as well! Purchase was easy and check out was simple and straight forward. I would not hesitate to purchase again from etrailer.com. Well done! 676846
Works great, excellent customer service! 672114
All was as hoped for. Good quality. 671707
Transaction was easy...shipping fast...just finished installation and exact fit...only concern was bearings made in China...will have to wait and see and hope the reviews were accurate.Would recommend to anyone...I am going to keep one of the old hubs and bearings in the truck just in case I need to limp home. 668885
Good overall product. It would be nice if the bearings came already packed, but not a deal breaker. The reviews condemning the dust covers are correct. I had problems installing both covers and ended up using the set from hubs that I removed. Some reviews claim that they are flimsy. They are a little light, but would be fine if they fit properly. The diameter is too large or there is not enough taper to fit them in easily. My old set went in perfectly. I imagine I would be frustrated and give fewer stars if I was unable to reuse my existing dust covers. Good luck! 663750
good quality at good prices fast shippi ng 659540

Cheaper & easier to replace than buying all the parts ! 655252
Very happy, Alot cheaper than most places and a perfect fit. Also arrived 2 days earlier than anticipated! Great product and great service!! 652846
This hub assembly is for a spindle 4 inches in length. Etrailer has done a fantastic job of putting all the specs for this product on the product webpage expect the spindle length. If you have an older trailer, you may have a 3 inch spindle. Double check your spindle length before you order. This product ships un-assembled and without grease. Bearings and hubs that have been greased and assembled in preparation for installation are non-refundable if it does not fit the spindle. Don't make my mistakes. 651734
These were the perfect fix for my friends old boat trailer. His axles were getting pitted where the grease seal rides so I fixed that with Speedi-sleeves. We also bought new tires & rims from etrailer and we’ve put on hundreds of miles without any issues...no more leaking grease! Thank you etrailer 645272
Yeah the bearings and all that are holding up nicely, haven't got the boat out yet this year but they've been doing good so far 642781
The hubs and bearings i ordered fit properly and went together well, been using trailer for a year now with no problems. Thank you! 641560
Good company up my shipped to 3day with me not even paying for it. Everything fit like it was supposed to will order again from these people. 641274
Good hubs. Great price! Great service. (responded promptly to my emailed question with complete answer) Quick delivery What more could you ask for? 637754
These were a perfect fit for my trailer and are very well made. Install was easy. 634515
