Yes, the Timken Bearing Kit # TMK52VR will fit your 3,500 lb axle as it fits an standard #84 spindle.

The only time this kit won't fit with a 3,500 lb axle is if the trailer/axle is made before the 2000's since that's about the time that axle parts started to become standardized.

While the #L68149 most likely corresponds to the inner bearing number of your hubs. If this is the case, you have either a 3.5k or a 4.4k axle. In order to know absolutely sure, you need to know the corresponding outer bearing number or the inner and…

If your 2021 Keystone Cougar 22MLSWE had 2,000 lb axles the part #TMK54ZR would be correct for it but I do not believe that is what you'd need although I was not able to verify the axle capacity of the trailer. A more likely axle capacity you…

The guy you were speaking with was telling the truth. If the Bearing Buddies are overfilled, you will indeed blow out the grease seal. The excessive pressure will push the grease out through the rubber portion of the seal. Using a double lip grease…
