Parts Needed To Convert Oil Bath Hubs On EZ Loader Boat Trailer To Grease  

Updated 12/28/2023 | Published 12/25/2023



Question:

I have a 2020 ezloader boat trailer with 2, 3500lb oil bath hubs. Trailer model T96BT 17-20 4000 Serial # 1ZETAMPK2LA004961 I would like to convert to grease. What bearing cap would I need to replace the ezloader standard clear oil hub cap. Any help would be great, Thanks

Expert Reply:

While we do not carry a replacement cap which will allow you to convert your hubs from oil bath to grease we do have a hub and all the components you will need to install a new setup which can be filled with grease. You will need one of each per hub.

Hub # DE36VR
Inner Bearing # L68149
Outer Bearing # L44649
Grease Seal # 168255TB
Grease Cap # F001518

When I reached out to EZ Loader they told me you would need an entirely new hub as well but I was able to determine your grease cap has a 2.125" diameter threaded end which appears to be a proprietary item you could only get from them. By replacing your hubs with the parts in the list above you have new, commonly found components you can get locally. You can also opt for the Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors # BB1980A-SS which will make filling your hubs much easier with grease.
