Question:

Do you have any trailer hubs that have zerk fittings to grease the spindle for 1 1/16 axle? thanks,

Expert Reply:

We don't have a hub with a zerk fitting, but we do have a product that would replace your existing grease cap and allow you to easily add grease when needed..

I'd recommend a Bearing Buddy bearing protector. If your outer bearing is # L44649 or # L44643, and you have a 1.980 hub bore diameter, you'd use # BB1980A-SS.

A Bearing Buddy has a zerk fitting that allows you to add grease when necessary, and features a blue indicator ring that tell you at a glance if grease needs to be added. The # BB1980A-SS is constructed of stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance.

I've linked to an install/demonstration video featuring the Bearing Buddy I recommended.
