Question:
My Hub says TDE 11033L. It also has a Turbo Lube Oil Cap. My current hubs are 11033L and not the 11033. Do you know what the difference is? I cannot find any information between the two.

While we cannot confirm for sure what the "L" means on the 11033L, the "L" does not make a differences when coming to fitment of the hub.
With that being said, the Tie Down Engineering 11033 hub has a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and is designed for 3500-lb axles. Replacement hubs that have these specs typically use a # L68149 inner bearing and # L44649 outer bearing, as well as inner race # L68111, outer race # L44610 and grease seals with inner diameter of 1.719" and outer diameter of 2.565".
You'll want to verify that your current hubs have these bearings, races and seals to ensure that a replacement hub will fit on your spindle. If you do have those components, a good replacement hub assembly to replace your T.D.E. 11033L hub with those components is the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3500-lb Axles # AKIHUB-545-35-K. This kit comes with the bearings, races, seal, grease cap, and lug nuts included and is a pre-greased hub so you won't need to worry about dealing with packing and greasing the bearings. I went ahead and attached an installation video of the hub to this answer.
