I went out to the warehouse to take some measurements of trailer spindle #TRU37FR for you. The stub is actually 3-3/8 inches from the end to the brake flange. It is 3 inches from the end to where the weld is for the brake flange. The brake flange…
The BTR and BT8 denotations refer to the spindle, not the trailer hub. The difference between a BTR and BT8 spindle is that the BTR spindle uses a 1.063" diameter L44649 bearing and the BT8 spindle uses a 0.99" diameter L44643 bearing. In…
Hi Jeff, welcome back! Is that the 126003? I don't see a 1260031 but the Lippert 126003 is a 3,500 lb hub with a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern. Assuming that is correct, the Terran Axle Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly #TX68VJ will work as a replacement.…
Since you have Dexter 7k axles, the only thing you will need is the Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shock Absorbers item #RM-2460-2570. This is by far the best suspension upgrade you can do to your trailer. The benefit of this…
...A BT8 spindle would have a diameter of .99 of an inch where the bearings would both install and would have a diameter of 1.24 where the great seal would ride. That would require a hub part # AKIHUB...
To determine the size of the brake assemblies you need you have to measure the depth and width of the hub drum on the axle like what you see in the picture I attached. The most common size is 2-1/4 inch wide like the #T4071600-500 that you…
That's a great question, Steven! Yes, you can totally swap hub #AH15450ECOMP for hub #DX22XR. To make it work, just be sure to use seal #SL150, it has a 1.5" inner diameter and a 2.331" outer diameter, which will fit perfectly with the…
Hi Roger; the tires I see in your last order are the Contender ST205/75R15. It looks like the wheel and tire you ordered was discontinued but I can tell you that the max psi for that tire was also 50 psi. It sounds like you have different tires now…
Hi Hayden; that bolt pattern is really uncommon but I believe it can be found on some really old Airstream trailers. There are no modern replacements that will match. The best option is to replace the hub with one that has a common bolt pattern like…
You will need to measure the diameter of the spindles where the seal and bearings ride. Check out the picture I attached that shows where this is. You will need an exact measurement so either a digital or dial caliper will be needed. To pick out the…
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…
