• Hub for E-Z Lube Spindle on Boat Trailer
  In order to determine if hub assembly 8-258-50UC1-EZ will work for you, first know that this assembly is for EZ Lube spindles that require a grease seal with a 1-1/2" inner diameter such as # RG06-020. You are also going to want to remove the hub and take a look at the bearing numbers to make sure your inner and outer bearings are # L44649. Normally that would be enough, but since you sanded the spindle, I also recommend you use a digital caliper such as # PTW80157 and measure the spindle...

• Is There a Replacement Spindle For a Dexter D44, 4400LB Trailer Axle?
  My recommendation is to replace your axle with a 5,200lb like # e55SR as the 4,400lb spindle is so uncommon they are not readily available. This will give you stronger components to lessen the chance of you having to replace a spindle in the future. If you can provide me with the dimensions for your axle I can verify the correct replacement for your D44 axle. The #84 E-Z Lube Spindle # TRU74FR while similar has a narrower diameter of 1-1/16" for the outer bearing where a 4,400lb uses...

• Troubleshooting EZ Lube Initial Grease Leaking Out Rear Grease Seal
  If you have grease coming out the rear seal, you have a bad seal or the incorrect size seal size. The EZ lube spindles will allow you to see grease out the front with the rear seal intact if your seals are working properly as you stated. I've attached a video of the installation of the EZ lube hub # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K to help.

  For the Kodiak Disc Brake Assembly - 10" Hub/Rotor - 5 on 4-1/2 - Dacromet - 3,500 lbs # K1HR35D, you need a Dexter #84 Spindle like the #84 Spindle for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles - 2" Diameter # TRU24FR or the #84 E-Z Lube Spindle w/ Brake Flange for 3,500-lb Trailer Axle - 1-3/4" Diameter # TRU74FR.

• Replacing Damaged Axles and Spindles on a Yacht Club Trailer
  In order to determine which replacement axles you need, I will need a few measurements. I will need hub face to hub face measurement, spring center to center dimension, inner and outer wheel bearing reference number, and the axle capacity. Take a look at the diagram I included. Regarding replacement spindles, you will want to use a dial caliper to measure the dimensions of your spindle for me to recommend a new one. The spindle measurements are labeled A through F, please view the diagram...

• Can The Hubs On a M1102 Light Tactical Trailer Be Converted To a 5 on 5-1/2" Bolt Pattern?
  Due to the weight capacity of the axle on your M1102 Light Tactical Trailer the only bolt patterns that will fit your spindle are a 6 on 5-1/2" or 8 on 6-1/2". You would have to replace your Spindle # TRU74FR on each side of your axle which would then require you to get new Brakes # AKFBBRK-35 and then 2 Hub/Drums # AKHD-555-35-K to have the 5 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern. Do understand this will lower the capacity of your trailer so if that is a problem you are going to have to stick with the...

• Can I Change a 5 on 4-1/2 Drum With A 5 on 5 Drum For A Trailer With 3,500 lb Axles
  As long as the drums have the same weight capacity as the axles that you are putting them on then there should be no problems there. If you don't already have the 5 on 5 drums that you are asking about, I recommend using the E-Z Lube Hub and Drum Assembly # 84556UC3-EZ. It has the E-Z lube cap on the end of the drum so if you have E-Z-lube axles it makes greasing your axles easier. It also works great with axles that do not have the E-Z lube option. Since you are taking the 5 on 4-1/2...

• How to Determine Hub and Spindle Size
  The spindle dimensions are as follows: A is the mounting dimension, B is the seal dimension, C is the inner bearing surface, D is the outer bearing surface and E is the diameter of the threaded portion of the spindle for spindle nut selection. Say you need a spindle and hub for a wheel with 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern and an axle that is 3500 lbs. For a single axle trailer you can use two of either the item # TRU64FR, if your axle is round or item # TRU47FR if your axle is square. Then...

• Replacement Axle Spindle for Dexter P21-SLR with 76 Inch Spring Seats and 44649 and 68149 Bearings
  I reached out to Dexter and they no longer make that axle. I can confirm based on the bearing sizes you gave that you have a 3,500 lb capacity. If you determine you just want to replace the hub, I recommend the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 3,500-lb Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 # 84546UC3 or # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K if you have the grease zerk integrated in the spindle. Since we can't match the spring seat to spring seat dimensions if you want to replace your axle I recommend using...

If you can let me know what you find I can help you to choose a replacement...

• Axle Kit for Fabricated Ice House Trailer
  All of our trailer spindles are shown on the linked page, but none of these has a stub end to fit 2 x 3-inch tubing. All are either round like # TRU74FR or square like # TRU47FR.

Bearings, races and seals are included with hub. All Timbren axle-less kits and beam axle...

• Can Electric Brakes Be Installed On One of The 3,500-Lb Axles of a Tandem Axle Utility Trailer
  I would first check with the laws in your state as far as how many brakes are required for the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of your tandem axle trailer. Some states require brakes on both axles of a tandem axle trailer. If brakes are allowed on one axle I would recommend to put them on the front axle since that is the axle that will be bearing the most weight of the trailer. Also, when stopping the trailer, the weight of the trailer will be shifting to the front axle more than the...

• Replacement Spindle For A 2000 Extreme Tandem Axle Boat Trailer
  Hey Ted, It unfortunately doesn't look like we offer a comparable spindle to the measurements you provided. If you can't find a replacement somewhere else and end up having to replace the axle then you'll want to measure from hub face to hub face and from center to center of the leaf springs. If you can send me these measurements I can look for a suitable replacement. This would also likely require you to replace the hubs as well since it would come with a different spindle.

• Solution for Trailer Axle with Bent Spindle
  You can replace the spindle but there really isn't a way to repair a bent spindle. I don't know what axle capacity you have but if it's a 3,500 lb axle the correct spindle would be the part # TRU74FR or if it's a 5.2k to 7k you'd want the part # TRU37FR.

• How To Fill Dexter EZ-Lube Spindle/Hubs With Grease And How Often Should They Be Filled?
  The spindle on your Dexter axle is going to be similar to the #84 E-Z Lube Spindle # TRU74FR in the image below. You can see there is a hole in the spindle where the grease will push through into your inner bearing. From there it will move along the spindle to the outer bearing where you will see the grease begin to push out the bearing and fill the grease cap. When filling you will want to turn the hub to ensure grease gets pushed through the entire inner bearing. This process should be...
