Hello Keith,
We don't have any way of knowing what hub is on a Karavan trailer, but I can help you determine the correct one. To find out, you will need to take apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the grease and you should be able to see the part number stamped directly on them.
If you are unable to find them, you need to use a digital caliper and measure your spindle where the bearings ride, like in the diagram I added below. You will also need to know your wheel bolt pattern; if you aren't sure what your wheel bolt pattern is I have linked a printable template which will tell you exactly what you have.
So for example, if your bearings are L44649 (1.063" inner diameter) and you have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern, you would use the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub for 2,000-lb Axles - 5 on 4-1/2 # 8-259-5UC1.
I have added a link below to our entire selection of hubs for you once you find this info.
