Bearing And Seal Kit Needed For A Dexter D60 Axle

Question

Question:

I think my request failed. Sorry if this is a duplicate. I have Dexter model D60 axles on my travel trailer and need replacement bearings, races and seals. I have the Dexter configuration sheet for my axles and it indicates 15123/25580 bearings and 2.250 seals. Is there a separate part number for races? Does etrailer have a kit with all of the appropriate parts? Thanks Brian

Hey Brian,

For inner bearing # 15123 you would need race # 15245 and for outer bearing # 25580 you would need race # 25520. The grease seal can be purchased with part # GS-2250DL. The Timken Bearing Kit # TMK42VR would include 15123/25580 Bearings, 15245/25520 Races, and 412920 Seal (2.25" ID/3.376" OD).

A BT8 spindle would have a diameter of .99 of an inch where the bearings would both install and would have a diameter of 1.24 where the great seal would ride. That would require a hub part #AKIHUB-440-2-1K for an idler hub. A BTR spindle would have…

Hey James, you can go with a 4k axle leaf spring like the part #e22YR in place of what you have now while it has a slightly higher weight capacity it's not enough that it would create a harsh ride quality. This is a 26 inch long spring though so…
