In order to select an axle and hub and bearing kit, we would need to know the hub face measurement of the current axle on the trailer, the distance from the center of one spring seat to the other spring seat, wheel bolt pattern, and the weight capacity of your axle or trailer.

I have attached a help article on how to determine your wheel bolt pattern, as well as a diagram showing where to measure for the hub face measurement and the spring seat measurement. You may be able to find the axle weight capacity, along with additional information, on a sticker on the axle.

If you can reply with your vin or serial number, I would be happy to see if I can find the specific axle dimensions that were used on your trailer.
