Question:

Thanks for your help on this project. I have inspected the axles and don't need to replace them. I would like to replace the Hubs, races, bearings, and brake assemblies. The bearings are: Bearing Kit for #84 Spindle, L44649/L68149. This is for a boat trailer used in salt water so I want all galvanized parts. Can you help me identify the correct set of parts?

Expert Reply:

If you are going to replace the axles and hubs then our hubs will come with the proper bearings. But in order to determine the correct bearings you would either need to replace the axles first and then tell me which axles you have so I can find hubs to match or if the axles are exactly the same as the old axles you could tell me the inner and outer bearing numbers stamped into the sides of the bearings.

I checked the EZ loader site and did not see replacement axles as an option so I am sort of in limbo. To be completely honest with you I believe you will have the best luck going directly through EZ Loader. It seems like more than half of the time they can't or won't give part numbers to us even when we have a VIN.

Based on your bearing numbers you can use galvanized hub and drum assembly # AKHD-545-35-G-EZ-K if you have EZ lube axles with the grease fittings at each end or # AKHD-545-35-G-K if you do not have EZ lube axles. For a set of compatible hydraulic drum brakes with a galvanized finish you can use # AKFBBRK-35-D. The hub and drum comes with the races already installed as well as the proper bearings and seal.
