For that size Dexter axle there are two seals that potentially could be the correct one with the only difference being the inner diameter. If the ID is 2.125 the part you need is # RG06-090, if instead it's 2.25 then you'd need the part # RG06-070.

You'll have to pull off the hub on the trailer to get the dimension by either measuring the spindle of the axle or the inner diameter of the old seal.
