Thoroughly Tested for Safety
This hub-and-drum assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This assembly has also been tested by QAI for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.
E-Z Lube and Easy Grease-Compatible Assembly for Simple Lubrication
The grease cap on this hub-and-drum assembly is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube or etrailer Easy Grease axle to make lubricating bearings quick and easy. Just remove the plug on the grease cap, attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle, and inject the grease. It will flow easily to both inner and outer bearings. Not only does this make lubricating the bearings easy, but it also helps to prevent corrosion of the hub. This is because you can lubricate the bearings without the mess of taking apart the entire assembly.
Determining the Bolt Pattern
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.
- If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
- If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
- If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
- If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

Everything looks good and price was great!
Installation still to come so will update after install.
by: Donn S11/12/2018
I just now completed changing out and adding the new hubs and brakes on my trailer. The only issue or difficulty was my error in ordering the correct hubs/brake drums. The return was properly handled and the new parts arrived in a timely manner. All I have left to check on is the functionality once install my brake controller in my truck. I would make additional purchases from etrailer.

Work as advertised for my trailer build.
by: Mark 01/19/2021
I installed these hubs and drums 1 years ago and in that time we have taken our camper on 12 trips locally (about 120 miles round trip each) and one big trip from Louisiana to Colorado and back which was close to 3,000 miles total. These hubs and bearing have performed perfectly. The drive to Colorado was 24 hours one way and the hubs never got hot. Everything was a perfect fit too.
by: Keith10/04/2018
I received within 4 days the wheel hub (with bearings and seal) together with backing plates that contained brake shoes and braking magnets. They installed perfectly on my Coleman popup trailer. Prices were reasonable. In fact the electric backing plate assemblies cost less than a previously purchased set of braking magnets.
Thanks for helping me get on the road again!

E trailer did a fantastic job.
Before order: Technical support / help was excellent.
Goal, conversion of a 1998 Floe snowmobile trailer from surge to electric brakes.
Problem, due to time and corrosion, I could only supply partial part numbers, spindle diameter.
etrailer did a fantastic job, researching, and getting me the correct part numbers, so I could order.
Julie did a great job.
She was very timely, communicated clearly and honestly, and just “kept me in the loop”.
I received the order came on the projected date, complete and undamaged. Excellent.
I would highly recommend etrailer, for your part needs.
by: Bruce04/25/2018
Seems to be very good quality. These hubs/drums fit the Dexter axle of my pop up camper perfectly. I like that they came with races, bearings and seals. The races were already properly installed.

Professionally pregreased well apprecia ted.
by: David P07/17/2016
product worked just like it should . The video on youtube made installation a snap . Even with a snafu at the warehouse of the wrong bearings being shipped one phone call to the very helpful rep led to a quick resolution . I have dealt with etrailer before and am very satisfied with their products and service .

I have used etrailer several times and the experience is always the same... the correct parts at a fair price and delivered when they said it would be.
by: Justin12/31/2017
Fit and function are great. Price and quality are spot on. I will be ordering from etrailer next time I need parts.
by: Brian04/05/2018
I now have 9780+ miles on this item.
I am going to replace the bearings. They still roll but one is getting a tick. About to go out. I guess I'd rather change them now as opposed to a 1000 miles from home.

view full answer... - How to Pick Out Trailer Brakes for a Aluma TrailerI attached a link to a page that has all of the 2,000 lb axle hub/drums we carry with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. What you will need to do is pull the bearings out of your current hubs and select the numbers you have from the filters on the page to see which will fit. Or if you can't find the numbers email me back with the diameter of the spindle where the bearings ride. On the product page for the hubs you end up going with there will be a related parts section where the correct...

- What Size Trailer Hub Drums will Fit Behind 10 Inch Trailer WheelThere are brake assemblies that are compatible with 10 inch trailer wheels. 7 inch hub/drums will fit behind a 10 inch wheel. I attached a link to a page that has all of them listed. You will need to first determine what spindle you have on your trailer so that you can pick out the correct hubs. You can do this by the bearing numbers or with the spindle dimensions. I attached a picture that shows where to measure.

- Can etrailer Hub # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K Fit 8 inch Trailer WheelYes the etrailer hub/drum part # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K that you referenced is compatible with 8 inch wheels like what you can see at the attached link to this page.
view full answer... - Replacement Hub and Drum for Pontoon Trailer with 205/65-10 Tires and BrakesSince you have a 10" wheel and brakes for your pontoon trailer it sounds like you're needing the Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 2K Axles # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K. This is a 7" hub and drum assembly with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and the L44649 inner/outer bearings with a grease seal 1.50" ID. You'll want to verify this matches with what you have on your end but I'm pretty sure this is what you're needing. Attached is a review video for you to check out.
view full answer... - Replacement 5-Lug Hub for a 2K Axle with 1-1/16" Straight SpindleThe 1-1/16" diameter is the same as 1.063" which means you need hubs that fit a BTR spindle. For an idler hub use this - # AKIHUB-545-2-EZ-2K For a hub and drum assembly use this - # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K Attached are some videos for you to check out.
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Add Brakes to 1997 Coleman Cheyenne TrailerWe have just what you need. Thank you for all the info you gave me as that makes my job much easier. First you have to start with hub/drums that fit the spindle. For that you'd want the # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K which will fit your spindle based on the bearing dimensions you have. It also has a bolt pattern of 5 on 4-1/2 inch. There are only manual adjusting assemblies available in the size you'd need though since they are smaller. For a kit that included both the left and right you'd want the...
view full answer... - Electric Brake Assemblies for Trailer to Replace Axletek 07-GG B07E-01For an exact replacement of what you have you'd want the etrailer brake assembly set part # AKEBRK-2 which is for a 2,000 lb axle like you have. So you'd want just this part number for new assemblies without drums. If you wanted hub/drums as well you'd also need the part # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K and you'd be set.
view full answer... - Hub Recommendation to Replace Hub with L44649 BearingsThanks for the dimensions and bolt pattern you listed from your current hubs. With that info I can help you pick out the hub you would need. For an idler hub (no trailer brakes) we have the part # AKIHUB-545-2-G-2K which will fit your spindle or for a hub with at brake drum we have the part # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K which is a fit as well. The bearings are not made in the USA but at this time there really isn't any US made bearing options for trailers.
view full answer... - What is the Difference Between the 1k and 2k Hubs for EZ Lube AxlesThe difference between the # AKHD-545-2-EZ-1K and # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K is what bearing is used, and they are not interchangeable. If your spindle uses an # L44643 bearing in the hubs then you'll need the 1k, and if your hub uses the # L44649 then you'll need the 2k.
view full answer... - Recommended Replacements for Dexter 8-257 Trailer HubsAn 8-257 hub is a 5 on 4-1/2 hub for 2,000 pound axles. They fit onto a BTR spindle which uses # L44649 for both the inner and outer bearings which have an inner diameter of 1.063 inches. If any of this doesn't match what you have let me know. If you just need the idler hubs and not the hub and drum assemblies we have # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K that are for E-Z Lube spindles. Or use # AKIHUB-545-2-LF-2K for standard spindles. If your spindles have a zerk fitting on the end of them then...

Which ones are exactly the right ones depend on your trailer's wheel size and if it has brakes or EZ lube spindles: Idler hubs 12 inch or smaller wheels: Standard spindles - # AKIHUB-545-2-2K EZ lube - # AKIHUB-545-2-EZ-2K Idler hubs 13 to 15 inch wheels: Standard spindles - # AKIHUB-545-2-LF-2K EZ lube - # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K Hub and drums for brakes: Standard spindles...
view full answer... - Replacement Hubs for Boat Trailer with L44549 Inner and Outer BearingsI'm guessing you actually have bearings # L44649 and you either mistyped or the bearing number is difficult to read. Having # L44649 as both the inner and outer is a very popular combination on 2,000 pound axles. If you need to verify to be sure this is what you have measure the inner diameter of the bearings with a digital caliper, like part # PTW80157. It should meaure 1.063 inches. I've also done some research and found that bearing L44549 has the same dimensions as # L44649 so it...

view full answer... - Replacement Hub and Tire/Wheel for a 2K Boat Trailer AxleI do have hub and tire/wheel options for your application but unfortunately the dimensions you're needing for your boat trailer axle aren't close to standard measurements so you're looking at a custom order through your local trailer shop. With that being said, I'll go ahead and make some recommendations for hubs and tire/wheel combos so you'll be set once you get your axle. I do recommend making sure that your trailer shop gets an axle that matches the bearing and seal specs that I'm...

To ensure that this hub and drum kit will fit your application you'll want to check the numbers on your bearings. This kit has inner and outer # L44649 bearings so if that's what you have then this will fit. The only thing that you'll want to double check is the bolt pattern. You said your's is 5 on 4-1/4"...

The proper replacement would be the etrailer brand # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K which is compatible with both E-Z Lube or standard spindles. The bearings, grease seal, races, dust cap, lug nuts and even the grease are included. These drums are compatible with the # AKEBRK-2 brake assemblies you'd mentioned.

view full answer... - Does 7" Electric Trailer Brake Kit Need to be GreasedThe 7" Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2 is ready to be installed once you receive them - no greasing is required. Trailer hub and drum assemblies are typically the pieces that need grease - if you were to add grease inside the hub assembly where the brake pads are then you run the risk of grease getting on the brakes which will affect their performance. If you're also needing the hub and drum assembly then the kit # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K is what you need - this does come pre-greased and...

An EZ-Lube spindle, such as part # TRU44FR, has a grease zerk fitting to allow you to pump grease into the hub bore and bearings. A Bearing Buddy will not fit with an EZ-Lube spindle.

Our current 7" Hubs # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K are designed to work with both the 1-1/4" wide or 1-3/4" wide brake assemblies.

If you check out the link I attached you will see all of the 72 inch Dexter axles we offer. Since you need a setup with hub/drums and brake assemblies you would need to get the part # T20BTR-EZ-7258 which is a 2,200 lb axle without hubs and then go with hubs and assemblies to match it. For hubs you would need the part # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K then for a left hand brake assembly part # AKEBRK-2L and for the right side part # AKEBRK-2R. These...

The wheel has a 5 on 5-1/2 in bolt pattern and the hub has a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. For a wheel that is compatible with the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K you would want the Steel Trailer Wheel # AM20046 which has the 10 inch x 6 inch rim and uses the 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern.
