Question:
Im wanting to install these on a dual axle trailer. Will the tires track the same as hub and drum 2866UC3? The front axle would be the 42865UC1s and the rear axle would be the 2866UC3s. Thank you.

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Trailer Hub Assembly # 42865-KIT and the Trailer Hub & Drum Assembly # 42866UC3 would work well together for having a brake axle and an idler axle.
The both have the same bolt patterns, weight capacities, and use the same bearings so they would work very well together.
I would recommend you install the brake axle on the axle closest to your tow vehicle.
I attached a video of how to remove and re-install hubs from a spindle.
