Expert Reply:
With a 5 1/2 bolt pattern and the outer bearing being an # L44649, you most likely have Dexter's #84 Spindle. This uses the # L44649 (1.063 inner diameter) outer bearing and the # L68149 (1.378 inner diameter) as the inner bearing. This is one of the most common spindles out there, but it wouldn't hurt to verify your inner bearing's inner diameter just to make sure.
If all that matches, the etrailer.com Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for E-Z Lube Axles # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K will be a great option for your boat trailer. This has a galvanized finish to prevent corrosion and a rubber plug in the grease cap for easy access to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle.
