To determine what the correct hub assembly will be for your Thule utility trailer you will first need to remove your current hub assembly and let me know what the inner and outer bearing numbers are as well as the grease seal inner and outer diameters.
If you can find part numbers, then you will need to use a digital caliper and measure the parts of your spindle in the attached picture to the 3rd decimal place (1.234 for example).
I spoke with my contact at Thule who said that their utility trailers have been discontinued long enough that when they switched all of their records over to digital form that the trailer information didn't get switched over with it.
