Bearings & Seals for 2004 EZ Loaded Boat Trailer Using Bearings L68149 and L44649  

Updated 02/01/2016 | Published 01/30/2016

Question:

I have a 2004 EZ Load trailer for a Skeeter boat. I am replacing bearings and thinking it may be simpler to replace the hubs? Inner bearing is L68149 and outer bearing is L44694. The Seal is 2.56inch x 1.68inch according to the book I actually have the bearings and races but the seal is the problem. I am reading on your website and I think I should have the double lip seals. Is that correct? Any help you can give is appreciated.

We can help you with replacement seals and bearings for your boat trailer and also with replacement hubs if yours are worn or damaged. In general double-lip seals are desirable on boat trailers to help prevent entry of water and the escape of grease.

For replacement bearings use parts # L68149 and # L44649 and for a double-lip seal (as supplied by the manufacturer) use part # BB60002.

If the races in your hubs are worn or damaged you can replace them too, using parts # L68111 and # L44610.

If you prefer new hub assemblies you can use the linked page to see all hubs that fit your bearings.
Click on your hub type, axle rating and bolt pattern to see suitable hub kits. Dexter kit # 84546UC3 includes a hub/drum, bearings, races, grease seal and grease cap and works on 3500-lb axles. It has a 5-on-4-1/2-inch wheel bolt pattern.
