Replacement Dexter 8-247 Wheel Hub

Question:

I just want to check with you to be sure this Hub/Drum will fit my trailer. My current Hub/Drum is a Dexter 10inch 2 1/4inch with 5 bolt holes and a 4 1/2inch bolt circle. The drum has 8-247 stamped on the surface.

Yes, since the hub you currently have has 8-247 stamped on it the Trailer Hub part # 8-247-50UC3-EZ that you referenced would be the correct hub for you to use.

This hub is 10 by 2-1/4 inch and has a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern.

We don't have any hub assemblies that use the L68149 inner AND outer bearing. This is a bit of an odd combination. It might be best to contact the trailer manufacturer directly because it sounds like this could be more of an OEM/proprietary assembly.
