Expert Reply:
I think you will be better off simply replacing the axle. I recommend a replacement like the Dexter Trailer Axle w/ Idler Hubs - EZ-Lube - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 89" Long - 3,500 lbs, # 35545I-EZ-89, since you have no brakes. This will give you the new axle, the new bearings, races, seals, and hubs on EZ-Lube spindles. Will also give you the clear knowledge if there is another issue because the axle will be brand new. The length of your trailer axle you are replacing will dictate the proper fit.
If you need further recommendations or troubleshooting, let me know.
