How to Determine Correct Replacement Oil Seal

Question

Question:

Hey guys! I have a Keystone Springdale 295BHLGL. I was wondering what oil seals fit this Trailer. I can barley make out the tag on the drivers side but the axles are single and the number looks like 448. If you have the seals/kit ide love to buy them through you all.

I can tell you how to determine the correct replacement oil seal, though we don't have a way to know the seal that is on your Keystone Springdale 295 BHLG. What you need to do is measure the diameter of the spindle where the seal rides using a digital caliper that can measure to the thousandth (3 decimal places).

You can use the diagram I added below to see where you need to measure for the seal. So for example, if you measured 2.375 inches you would use the Trailer Hub Oil Seal # 10-48.

I have added a link below to our entire selection of oil seals, or if you let me know the measurement you get I can point you in the right direction.
