We do offer some Nev-R-Lube hubs that are shown on the linked page, such as idler hub # 008-402-91, but all of these are for axle ratings of 6K and above and all use a 6- or 8-bolt wheel bolt pattern. Chances are your trailer with a 3500-lb axle uses the more common 5-on-4-1/2 pattern.

In the 3500-lb axle rating we do have EZ-Lube hubs made for spindles with a grease zerk fitting, shown on the other linked page, but none that are the Nev-R-Lube variety that use permanent cartridge style bearings like # 31-71-3.

For selecting new hubs that will fit on your existing spindles you will need to confirm the inner and outer bearing part numbers and select a hub that takes those same ones. The linked photo will show you how to spot your bearing numbers and the articles will help you with the installation of new hubs.

Please feel free to tell me your inner and outer bearings from your existing hubs and I will be glad to help you find compatible replacements.
