Unfortunately, I don't have a reference that would tell me which bearings your horse trailer uses. You'll need to pull one of the hubs off, and obtain the reference numbers off the inner and outer wheel bearings. To determine which grease seal you'd need, you'll need to measure the diameter of the spindle where the grease seal rides, as well as the inside diameter of the hub bore. These measurements need to be precise to two or three decimal places, so a digital caliper like # PTW80157 would be needed.

If you can't find reference numbers on the bearings, measure the diameter of the spindle where the inner and outer bearings ride.

Get back with me with the measurements you took, and I'd be happy to recommend a bearing kit for you.
