In order for me to answer your question, I will need some more information from you. I will need the axle rating for your trailer. There should be information on sticker, stamp, or plate on the axle itself. In the case you cannot find this information on the axle and it is a round axle, you can measure the axle diameter to determine the axle rating. If you remove your existing hubs and bearings, I will need some measurements from your spindle and your trailer's bolt pattern. With this information I can determine what size hub and bearings you need. For example, if your spindle measures .378" at the inner bearing, your will need, part # L68149.

I have included a diagram to show how and where to measure on your spindle, a chart for common trailer axle diameters, and a product description link below.
