Question:
Can you get this with a 5 on 4.5 lug pattern?

Expert Reply:
The TruRyde Spindle # TRU94FR referenced in your question uses the # L44643 inner and outer bearing and is designed for axles with up to 2,000 pound capacities.
For a compatible trailer hub assembly that features a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern, I recommend the etrailer.com # AKIHUB-545-2-1K. This hub is designed for 2,000 pound axles and will work perfectly on the spindle that you mentioned. The bearings, races and grease seal are all included.
For a hub and drum assembly, I recommend the etrailer.com # AKHD-545-2-EZ-1K. This will allow you to add electric or hydraulic drum brakes if needed and again is compatible with the BT8 spindle on your trailer.
I have attached a couple of short video demonstrations on these products that you can also check out.
