What you have now is a standard 2,200 lb axle spindle which we have replacement hubs that will fit and work great like the etrailer hub # AKIHUB-545-2-2K which has the bolt pattern you need as well.

Actually the hub comes pre-greased so you don't need to add any grease once they are installed. There are some mechanisms that will allow you to pump grease into an installed hub like EZ lube spindles or Bearing Buddies but those typically cause people to over fill the hubs which causes the seals to blow out. When it's time to put new grease in the hub the LMX Red grease part # L11390 is the way to go as it's the heaviest duty option and it's waterproof. I attached a link to a video on packing bearings with grease for you to check out as well.

We have just what you are looking for with the trailer hub part #AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K. This has the correct bearing to fit your spindle and has the 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern you are looking for as well.

The closest metric trailer tire size to a 4.80x12 is going to be a 145/80-12. The typical diameter of a 4.80x12 tire is 20.5 inches. On a 145/80-12, it is 21.3 inches. So the metric size will be a little over 1/4 inch taller. Make sure to measure the…
