The most common grease seal for a 4,400 lb axle is the # 58846 with a 1.719" inner diameter and 2.565" outer diameter. This is the same grease seal used for most 3,500 lb axles as well. This fits a 4,400 lb hub and drum assembly like the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 4,400-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 10" Diameter - 6 on 5-1/2 # 8-407-5UC3-EZ.
