The kit in question is # XLPROLUBE1980KIT. It fits 1.98 inch hubs (the opening where the grease cap fits in the hub) and 3500 pound axles. The seal which will replace the regular grease seal fits 1.72 inch spindles (diameter where the seal rides on the spindle) but will not fit 1.68 inch spindles.

Anyone know where I can purchase just the cap? After two winters, I have two of them that the threads have broken from the cap and I've lost all my oil. Due to the thread seeming to be not standard to anything, I'm trying to keep from paying $150 just for 4 caps. Thank you!

If your trailer has a 3,500 lb axle so that you would normally install the Kodiak XL # XLPROLUBE1980KIT then the only way we have for you to get a new cap is to get the body with it as well which is part # xlprolube1980. If you have a larger axle than that you can filter through the linked selection to see if any of these match your trailer specs.
