It sounds like you have an integrated hub/wheel design on your trailer and want to switch to a more standard separate hub and wheel. If that's the case then we have some great options for you, the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles part # AKIHUB-440-2-1K is an idler hub assembly with 4 on 4" bolt pattern that uses L44643 (1") bearings. If you're looking for new wheels/tires as well, I recommend the Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" White Wheel part # AM30040. This should be everything you need to complete the swap which makes changing parts much easier and accessible.
