• New Brake Assemblies, Hub/Drums, Brake Lines, and Bearing Buddy for Trailer with 3,500 lb Axle
  For as trashed as those brake assemblies are I am impressed with how spotless that spindle is! Based on the bearing numbers you mentioned you have a #84 spindle and the hub part # AKHD-545-35-G-K is correct. Since this its galvanized it's a really great option as it will fight corrosion. The flexible brake line kits like the part # 18SI-BLKIT is what I would go with. They are just as durable as anything else and a lot easier to install. The brake assemblies # AKFBBRK-35R-D and # AKFBBRK-35L-D...

• Replacement Grease Seals For TRP GS-1719DL
  From the numbers you provided it sounds like you need replacement grease seals. In my research, the grease seals I found with the GS-1719DL number have a 1.72 inside diameter and 2.565 outside diameter. The replacement double lip grease seals you need are part # RG06-050. There are 2 seals in the package. When replacing any components for your hub, you will want to make sure you either get the numbers for the parts or take precise measurements with a digital caliper. I have attached...

• Safe Grease Gun Pressure for Filling Hubs with Grease on EZ Lube Spindles
  Care should be taken when loading grease into a hub that is installed on an EZ-Lube spindle. It is very easy to over-fill the hub and apply too much pressure and blow out the grease seals. Even the double-lip seals like # 34823 used with EZ-Lube hubs can be blown out from excess grease pressure. The standard grease guns we offer top out at a maximum pressure of 7000-psi, but many are rated for lower pressure, such as # ALL940798 (4500-psi) and # L30100 (3000-psi) and it's cartridges...

• Spindle Compatible With Trailer Idler Hub Assembly AKIHUB-440-2-1K
  The Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles - 4 on 4 - L44643 Bearings - Pre-Greased # AKIHUB-440-2-1K won't fit your trailer spindle as it will be too long. The reason is, this hub is designed to work on BT8 spindles, which are longer than what you have. The only solution we can offer is to replace your short and older spindles with a new one that will work with the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-440-2-1K, which is the BT8 Spindle for 2,000 lb Trailer Axles # TRU59FR. I have...

• Grease Used in CE Smith Pre-Greased Hub CE13110
  I reached out to CE Smith, who told me the Trailer Hub Assembly with Carrying Case for 2,500-lb Axles - 4 on 4 - Pre-Greased # CE13110 uses a marine grade grease similar to the LubriMatic Marine Trailer Wheel Bearing Grease # L54FR. At one point the grease was in fact red but they changed it to the greener in color grease, with the only difference being the color, as both are marine-grade. I have added a link below to a video review of this grease if you'd like to take a look.

• Replacement Double Lip Grease Seal for National Seal 471750
  It looks like the National 471750 grease seal has an outer diameter of 1.983 inches and an inner diameter of 1.25 inches. The replacement grease seal that we offer is part # 34823. This is a double lip grease seal that is best suited for marine applications such as a boat trailer and it fits hubs that use the same bearing and race combination and spindle size that you mentioned. If you also need new grease, I recommend picking up our LubriMatic Marine Trailer grease # L54FR which includes...

• Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000 lb Axle With 13 Inch Wheels
  We do have a solution for you, although the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles # 34822545BX does require wheels be only 8" to 12". The reason for that is there is this hub does not have a large enough flange diameter in order to to provide the necessary side-to-side support for a larger 13" wheel, so it can become loose on the hub. Instead, the hub you need for your 13" wheel is the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles # 8-258BTUC1. This uses the same...

• Are Wet Bolts Recommended for Boat Trailers
  Hi Steve; wet bolts are a great idea for all trailers so I would recommend them for your boat trailer. Instead of piecing something together with the # 018-026-05 you were looking at I recommend the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit. This comes with wet bolts, bronze bushings, and 1/2" shackle straps. All of these components will hold up better compared to your standard parts in salt water. You will need to measure your current shackles eye to eye to find the right kit. If your measurement...

• How to Determine Correct Replacement Bearings for Older Calkins Boat Trailer
  Oh how we wish, almost every day, that all trailer makers maintained detailed records of the components used in the fabrication of their trailers, but sadly, we do not live in that world. So, you will need to pull a wheel and hub, and check the numbers on the bearings and grease seal. I linked a photo that shows the typical placement and appearance of bearing and seal part numbers. With those part numbers in hand you can directly check our site for those parts by entering each number in...

• What Type Of Grease Should Be Used On A Suspension With Wet Bolts
  If you're greasing a trailer that stays on the land then you'll want hi-temp grease like part # L11390. If you are greasing a boat trailer then you'll want to use marine grease like part # L54FR. When replacing/adding in more grease it's important to use the same grease since some are made with different bases and will break down quickly if mixed with one that has a different base. If you don't have a grease gun you can use part # L30416 for one with a flexible hose to get into hard to...

• Recommend Grease That Is Compatible With Boat Trailer Bearings
  I recommend using the Calcium Sulfonate grease like the LubriMatic Marine Trailer Wheel Bearing Grease - 3 oz. Cartridge # L54FR. You're able to combine the calcium sulfonate grease and the anhydrous calcium grease together. You need to make sure your quantities and amounts are mixed correctly so it is not too thick. If the grease is too thick it will not operate under the same temperature changes and will not be as fluid to lubricate all the smaller parts of the bearing. If you have any...

• How Much Travel Distance Is Recommended for Fender Clearance with Timbren Axle-less Suspension?
  You can absolutely use Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System on a custom trailer application, however the instructions state that the axle-less systems are not recommended for triple applications. With whatever system you end up using, you will want to leave a minimum of 4-7/8 inches of clearance above the tires for the suspension travel. If you end up using these axles, I recommend the Trailer Hub/Drum Assembly - 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 12" - 8 on 6-1/2 - Galvanized,...

• Wet Shackle Bolts to Reduce Noise from Tandem Axle Travel Trailer Suspension
  If you think the cause for the noise on your 2015 Jayco Whitehawk 24RBS tandem-axle travel trailer is from the normal travel of the suspension components (leaf springs, equalizers and shackle straps), you might switch over to wet bolts. The squeaking noises from trailer suspension can be reduced by replacing standard shackle bolts with wet bolts. Wet bolts like # TRFA71063 and # 126B2 have a grease zerk fitting that allows you to maintain a layer of grease between the surfaces of those...

• Replacement Bearings and Seals for a 2016 Triton LT WC Trailer
  Thank you for your VIN. I was able to use this and determine that you need the Bearing Kit part # BK1-150. This kit has everything that you need to rebuild one hub so you will need two per axle. If you don't already have a bearing packer and grease you can use both part # PTW1218 and part # L54FR.

• Can the Spring Pin Handle be Rotated to the Handle Side on this Jack
  Good News! You can in fact rotate the bottom portion of the Square Direct Weld Jack - Drop Leg w/ Spring Return - Sidewind - 28-3/4" Lift - 12K part # TJD-15000SP-F . To do this you will simply remove the upper plate and gear kit located below that. Once removed you can rotate the outer tube the 1/4 turn you want and reassemble the gear kit on top. I do not recommend separating the two lower portions of this jack because of the return spring it can be quite frustrating trying to get it...

• Is LubriMatic Marine Grease Compatible With LubriMatic 11465
  Hey Malcolm, The LubriMatic Marine Trailer Wheel Bearing Grease # L54FR isn't going to be compatible with the 11465 grease you were using. That said, I do have some good news as that grease is in fact still made and available. What you need is the LubriPlate Poly HP-2 Wheel Bearing Grease # L11465.

• Bearing Kit Options For Tracker Pontoon Boat Trailer With Bearing L44649 & Dexter 010-019 Seal
  Based on what you gave me I can narrow it down to one of two bearing kits for your Tracker boat trailer. Since you mentioned L44610 that means one of the bearings is L44649, and when combined with the Dexter 010-019-00 grease seal, that leaves two options. One is for a 3,500 lb axle and the other is for a 2,200 lb axle, so you can check and see what your axle rating is, which will help decide: - 2,200 lb Axle: Bearing Kit, L44649 Inner/Outer Bearings, 10-60 Seal # BK1-150 - 3,500 lb Axle:...

• What Grease is the LubriMatic Marine Trailer Wheel Bearing Grease Part # L11402 Compatible With
  The LubriMatic Marine Trailer Wheel Bearing Grease part # L54FR has a calcium sulfonate base. If the Mallory Marine Wheel Bearing Grease part 9-82750 that you are referring to also has this type of base then it will work well together. It will also work well with a few other bases as you can see in the attached photo and help article. If you need a grease gun for 3 oz cartridges then I recommend the Mini- Grease Gun part # L30-132-07 .

• What Type of Wheel Bearing Grease to Use on Older Utility Trailer
  We offer both traditional petroleum-based wheel bearing grease and also more environmentally-friendly bio-based grease products that are produced from crops. It is permissible to mix the two types. From your description it appears you may have petroleum-based grease in your bearings now. If your utility trailer will be exposed to water (and salt water especially) then I suggest a petroleum grease designed specifically to withstand such a corrosive environment, such as Lubrimatic Marine...
