Replacement Hub Recommendation for Tracker Trail Star Trailer

Question

Question:

I have a Tracker Trail Star trailer and want a hub kit for a spare. It is a 5inch hub with 4 1/2 inch 5 lugs. The bearings are 1 3/8 X 1 1/16. The grease seal is Dim 2.33 X 1.68. Not sure which hub I need?

Thanks for getting me all the info needed to pick out a hub! Based on what you listed the correct hub you need for a replacement is the part # 84545BX. This uses the same bearings as what you have and has a matching bolt pattern.

If the bearing numbers are worn off you can also measure their inner and outer diameters with a digital caliper. Unfortunately I'm not able to track down what size/number your trailer hubs use, so this is the only accurate method for determining the correct replacements. If you can tell me what measurements you find I will be happy to recommend the right parts.

@Doug The above mentioned hub # 84545BX is correct as you need a 3,500 lb capacity axle hub.

Answer 1

Overpacking the trailer hub with grease is the number one reason for grease seal failure. For a boat trailer I would recommend re-packing the hubs by hand with grease once per season and you'd be fine. I don't like recommending people use…

From what I could find out about the Super Lube Spindles, they will be much the same as the Dexter EZ-Lube style spindles, like the #TRU74FR. This will include a zerk/grease fitting on the end that allows a grease gun to attach to. With that being…

We had a previous customer with your trailer give us their spindle dimensions which allows me to know what bearing kit you'd need. The correct kit is the part #BK2-100 which fits the very common 84 spindle that your trailer has. I attached an…

Answer 9

The #84 spindle is just a common way to identify the spindle dimensions typically used for 3,500 lb axles. So instead of listing out the parts, people can just say they have #84 spindles and it's easier to know what fits it. The CE Smith Trailer…

Hello Tyler, thanks for reaching out. We should have a hub that will work for you, but unfortunately hubs require either knowing your bearings or precise measurements since they aren't universal. A 2,960 lb axle is also not common/standard. To…

Hi Justin; I'm sorry to say the information you gave me cannot be used to identify the replacement hubs for your trailer. Even the GVWR doesn't indicate axle capacity since the manufacturers pull out the tongue weight from that figure when…
