Question:
I am converting an old moble home axel with a new hub . Old hub bearings inner L68149 outer LM67048 . The spindle is 4 inches long. Which hub unit will work best? Also the old wheels and tires need replacing. Old tires are size 7-14.5 LT

We have one option that will work for you.
The Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 4,400-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 10" Diameter - 6 on 5-1/2 # 8-407-5UC3-EZ uses inner bearing # L68149 and outer bearing # LM67048 so it would work perfectly on your spindle.
This hub is designed to work with 10" electric trailer brakes # K23-462-463-00.
Since the # 8-407-5UC3-EZ has the 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern I recommend going with the Lionshead Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" - 6 on 5-1/2 - White # AM20532 and for a tire the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range D # AM10245 which will be 1" wider and .5" taller than your 7-14.5LT tires. Since these tires are so close in size you shouldn't have any fitment issues but you can confirm this by making sure there is atl east 1-1/2" clearance between the inside edge of your tires and the frame, and at least 3-1/4" clearance between the top of the tire and the bottom of the fender.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
