Trailer wheel bearings are specific to the spindle that is installed on the axle that is on your trailer. You will need to safely support the trailer, remove the wheel and tire, remove the grease cap, remove the cotter pin and washer that secures the…
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.…

Explore durable and easy-to-install trailer hubs and drums designed for 2,000 lbs axles. Perfect for lightweight trailers, these hubs ensure a smooth ride and reliable performance. Whether you're upgrading or replacing, find the right fit for your trailer
Regular maintenance is key. Check for wear and tear, ensure proper lubrication, and replace any damaged parts promptly. Keeping your hubs clean and well-greased will help maintain their performance and extend their lifespan, ensuring safe and smooth travels.
To ensure a perfect fit, verify the axle capacity and check the compatibility with your trailer's existing setup. It's crucial to match the hub's specifications with your trailer's requirements. Consulting with experts or using detailed guides can help you select the right parts.
These hubs are designed for lightweight trailers, offering easy installation and reliable performance. They often come pre-greased, saving time during setup. Look for features like easy grease fittings and durable construction to ensure longevity and smooth operation on the road.
If you notice noise after installation, inspect the hubs for any damage or improper fit. Check the bearings and races for defects. If issues persist, consider consulting with a professional to ensure everything is correctly installed and functioning as it should.
