Question:

Hi I have a boat trailer with a 1.5 inch square axle with a 1 inch spindle do you sell types of axles? I only can find 1.5 inch square axle with a 1 1/16 inch spindle. If I bought the axle with the 1 1/16 spindle my 1 inch hubs wouldnt fit on that, is that correct?

Expert Reply:

You are correct that a 1-1/16 inch spindle will not fit your current hub. Also we are only going to have round axles, like # T3584F-EZ-8974, which will use Inner bearing # L68149 and Outer bearing # L44649.

To determine if your hub is going to fit on our axles you will want to pull your hub and look for the numbers stamped into the bearings.

If you are unable to retrieve the bearing numbers, you can take measurements of the spindle. I have included a link to our spindle main page. At the top of the page is a diagram showing all of the measurements we would need to find the correct hubs and bearings. The measurements need to be as precise as possible so I recommend using dial or digital calipers if you need to measure the spindle.

A one inch spindle like # TRU94FR, will use # L44643 inner and outer bearings.

You can view some information on checking the bolt pattern of your hub and removing and replacing hub assemblies at the included links.
