Replacement Bearings Available for Dexter 2,800 lb Trailer Axle  

Updated 05/03/2024 | Published 04/30/2024

Question:

The pictures attached are off an old travel trailer chassis that I just acquired. I am planning to convert it in to a flatbed and I am wondering if I can still get parts like hubs bearings and brakes for it or do I have to upgrade to new axles? I can’t find an information on Dexters website and my local Dexter dealer was zero help because I didn’t have a commercial account with them. Also what is the official weight capacity of my axles? I have a tandem axle trailer and both axles have brakes.

Hey Jason, yeah that's a Dexter 2,800 lb capacity axle that there are current replacement parts for.


The bearings you would need are inner bearing # LM67048, outer bearing # L44649

What about replacement part numbers for hubs, drums and brakes? Also is it possible for you to know the hub face measurement and the spring center measurement for that axle? I am wondering if it’s possible to update the weight rating for the axles to at least 3500lbs maybe even 5k.

@JasonO To pick out a hub I would also need to know your wheel bolt pattern, but if your end goal is to have an uprated axle you'd need to replace the entire axle. To pick out a replacement you'll have to take the measurements your self though as we don't have a way to look that up.
