Yes, because it is a 3-wire light, you can wire the Red Identification Light Bar with White LED Utility Light #OPT88FR to function as rear marker and reverse lights.
I have attached for you below some common torque values needed for a trailer suspension system but a lot of these will vary by bolt size and other factors. U-Bolts: Varies by Size - 1/2" bolts: 45 ft/lbs - 70 ft/lbs, 9/16" bolts: 65…
I went and pulled a Kenda Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Black Mod Wheel #AM32424 from our warehouse to determine the weight capacities and found that on the sidewall it was stamped Load Range D with a 2,150 lb capacity at…
The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…
To determine the size of the hub assembly you need to purchase you have to determine which bearings are in the old assembly. If the old assembly has L44649 inner bearings, you would use the hub you chose #8-258-5UC1. If the inner bearings are…
If you were happy with the ground clearance that the trailer had with the old setup then I would recommend you stick with the way you had it with the axle below the springs. If you moved the axle above the spring you would lose ground clearance and…
You can use leaf springs that are rated higher than the axle without any issues as long as they measure the correct measurement for your trailer. For example the 6-leaf double eye spring for 7,000 lb axles part #e64SR measures 24-7/8" eye to…
The tire and wheel combos we carry are not machined balanced. You can have the tire and wheel combos balanced at a local tire shop if you wanted to. What some manufacturers will do is line up the light spot on the tire with the heavy spot on the…
Your math is correct in your trailer weight load example. If a fully-loaded tandem axle trailer weighs 4000-lbs then each of the 4 tires will bear 1/4th of that load, or 1000-lbs. In this case a tire rated for 1300-lbs would provide a good safety…
In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.
If this is a straight spindle, you likely have a BTR which uses two L44649 bearings that measure 1.063" diameter as this is the closest size to what you have given and a pretty common one. In which case, you'll use the Easy Grease Trailer…
