looking for oil bath hubs system for marine boat axles 7,000lbs

Expert Reply:
There are a few options for oil bath hubs for a boat trailer with 7000lb axles though I will start with saying that oil bath hubs are not recommend for a boat trailer due to the oil braking down very fast when water is introduced unlike grease.
The first is a disc brake option which is the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 13" Hub/Rotor - 8 on 6-1/2 - Dacromet and Stainless - 7,000 lbs # K2HR712DS. This system includes races but you will need inner bearing # 25580 and outer bearing # 14125A. Now to make it oil bath you will need Unitized Oil Seal # 10-63, Oil Cap # XLPROLUBE2440, and Oil # XLPROLUBE.
For drum brakes you would need Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb Axles - 8 on 6-1/2 - Oil Bath # 8-219-9UC3-A which includes inner bearing # 25580, outer bearing # 14125A, oil seal, oil cap, wheel bolts, and lug nuts so all you will need to purchase is oil # XLPROLUBE.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
