Question:
Will these work on moble home axles?

Expert Reply:
The only way to confirm whether or not the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 7,000-lb Axles - 8 on 6-1/2 # AKIHUB-865-7-2-K will fit your mobile home axles is to pull a hub on both axles and check the bearings and grease seal to see if the part numbers match the following:
Inner bearing - # 25580 (1.75" inner diameter)
Outer bearing - # 14125A (1.25" inner diameter)
Grease Seal - # GS-2250DL (2.250" inner diameter)
If you can't find part numbers on the bearings and seal then you'll need to use a digital caliper to measure the different places on your spindles to see if they match up with the inner diameters that I mentioned above. I'm attaching a photo showing where you'll need to measure.
Please note that I am saying to do this for both of your axles. Mobile home axles are only designed to be used once so we don't recommend using them for regular trailer use. It can also be difficult to find replacement parts sometimes because the person making the trailer tends to just slap random parts on it since the trailer is only making one trip.
