Question:

I habe a set of mobile home axles that ate 3inch od but this part is under 3. Is it still the right part to convert my axles to 8 lug electric brake hubs?

Hello Josh, thanks for reaching out. The Brake Mounting Flange # 4-44-1 is correct for a 3" round tube axle. It does not go around the axle tube. The flange is welded to the spindle.

If you can tell me your inner bearing number, outer bearing number and seal size I can look into it and see if we have a compatible hub. Mobile home axles are not designed to be reused like this so finding parts that all work together can be tricky.
