Helpful Expert Reply:

I search the Shoreland'r site for your trailer model but it is no longer listed Their site also does not list the specific bearing and seal parts included in their trailers.

Your easiest method for identifying the correct replacement parts is then to simply pull one wheel and hub and gather the parts numbers from the inner bearing, outer bearing and grease seal. You can refer to the linked photo that shows you the typical location and appearance of these part numbers. You can enter them directly into our search box to find replacements. This is by far the easiest method to identify replacement parts.

If you cannot find the part numbers you will need to use a digital caliper like # PTW80157 to measure the spindle at points B, C, and D. You'll need to measure to the nearest thousandth of an inch, such as 1.250-inches for example. You can then use the linked page for bearings to find the bearings with an inner diameter that fits your spindle measurement.

We offer both individual bearings as well as kits that include a grease seal. I also linked our page for grease seals to allow you to find a seal with the correct diameter to fit your spindle.

You may want to use a bearing packer to simplify the process of greasing the new bearings. We offer part # L70025 and part # ALL647646 and bearing grease such as The Marine 3 oz cartridges # L54FR and a compatible grease gun like the # 30-800.
