Question:
7000 lbs and 5 bolt pattern is that a 1/2 lug nut?
asked by: James L
Expert Reply:
If you're trailer has an overall weight capacity of 7,000 lbs this likely means you have a tandem axle trailer and hub and drums with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern like part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K. If this is the case then it is very likely that you have need 1/2" lug nuts like part # CE11051.
Should you have a older 7,000 lb axle with a 5 bolt pattern then you likely have something like the hub and drum assembly # 8-174-5UC3 which uses 9/16" bolts so you'd need a lug nut like part # 6-53 for a 60 degree cone or # STN569 for a 90 degree cone. This hub has a unique 5 bolt design so it would definitely stand out.

When I provided serial number you mentioned that have 7000 pound axle well I only have one wheel per side (single axle 2 3/8 wide) has electronic brake and I’m trying the determine payloadcapacity A part coupler not exceed 5000 pounds is I guess a weigh station & subtract gvrwv If there any discrepancies on title it would be best to update DMV or DOL
