The TruRyde Replacement D Tang Spindle Washer # 5-101 that you referenced has a 1-inch inner diameter to fit on 1-inch diameter spindles. All such items that we offer share this same 1-inch inner diameter, such as parts # 5-23 and # 5-57.

The points on your spindles where the bearings ride can have a larger diameter than the exterior point where you will apply the D-washer. Please refer to the linked photo.

Answer 1

The Demco Hydraulic Trailer Brake Actuator part #DM72VR should be a direct replacement for the Atwood 61101 Brake Actuator that you have now. This newest updated it rated at 7K instead of 6K. This is a bolt on option that mounts on 3" centers.…

Whatever bearing kit you got likely came with both to give you options. Since you already had a tang washer on your spindle you can stick with the tang washer. Using the tang washer like the #5-101 with a D washer like the #5-23 would give you no…

I did some looking and found that the 46210 and 46845 hubs you currently have use the same #L68149 inner bearing and #L44649 outer bearing. However, as we do not carry the Tie Down Engineering Vortex hubs, I cannot say what all will fit them,…

Answer 8

Based on my research a hub with a part number 46845 is a hub with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and uses inner bearing #L68149 and outer bearing #L44649 like what the bearing kit part #BK2-100 that you referenced provides. The axle should have…

Yes, the Timken Bearing Kit #TMK52VR will fit your 3,500 lb axle as it fits an standard #84 spindle. The only time this kit won't fit with a 3,500 lb axle is if the trailer/axle is made before the 2000's since that's about the time that…

Answer 10

There really should be a flat washer between the outer bearing of your hub and the nut that holds it on. The washer protects the back side of the bearing from the edges and points on the back side of the spindle nut. The Washer For 1 inch Spindle,…

The hub bore diameter of 2.037" - 2.042" is a rather uncommon size but Harbor Freight Trailers generally do use some rather oddball parts in which replacements are hard to find. Although we do not have any standard grease caps that will…
