I have a 2001 Sooner Royale horse trailer with living quarters that has Nevrlube bearings. The axle is Dexter 15, Model SLR. It is an 8 lug, and if i measured correctly 6 1/2 inches. What bearing number do I need to order? Thanks

Your bolt pattern of 8 on 6-1/2 is a huge help. You will want the 50MM Nev-R-Lube Bearing for 8,000-lb Dexter Axles - Qty 1 # 31-71-3.

The 42MM Nev-R-Lube 42MM x 76MM x 39MM # 31-73-3 is only a fit for 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt patterns, and the 35MM Nev-R-Lube 35MM X 64MM X 37MM # 31-72-3 is also for smaller axles.

The mm measurements mess with some people, so the 50mm bearings will be 1.968 inches, the 42mm will be 1.653 inches, and the 35mm will be 1.377 inches.

Good am. Own a 2003 Sooner horse trailer and it has self lubricating . How do I know when they need to be replaced? Have about 90k miles no problems. No sure how to check and if need maitainence. It's a 3 horse goose neck 7k axel. Thank you so much.

Nev-R-Lube bearings don't have a particular maintenance/replacement schedule that needs to be followed. Checking for visual wear or damage about once a year is enough, but other than that there isn't anything specific you need to look for with regards to knowing when it's time to replace them. They do come with a 100,000 mile warranty.
