Can You Determine Replacement Trailer Bearings without Taking Hub Apart
Updated 10/26/2015 | Published 10/25/2015
Question:
I have a calkins trailer, single axle, 14inch tires. I have no other info on trailer, year, model or serial numbers? I want to replace the bearings and seals, but I dont want to take it all apart until I have the parts in case I still use the boat, can you tell by this info what bearings and seals I would use? Thank you

I really wish there was a way I could tell you all of the correct bearings and seals that you would need without having you take the hub off but that is the only way.
To save yourself a little bit of trouble you could just take the hub off and measure the spindle with a dial or digital caliper where the bearings and seals ride. This will tell us what spindle you have and what bearings would fit it. This will save you having to completely disassemble the hub.
I attached a picture that has where you will need to measure.
