Question:

I have a 2022 DRV 5th wheel that has Morryde independent suspension, 9K axles and Kodiak trailer components. I would like to install a bearing buddy type fitting on my hubs. They are threaded. You sell the brakes and rotors, but for leaf springs. Do you sell an EZ lube that would fit

Hey Gerald, we have some larger Bearing Buddies that fit larger hub bores like the part # BB2717SS that would fit a hub bore of 2.717 inch but I don't believe this would be big enough as it normally is for between 5,200 and 7,000 lb rated axles.

But if you can get me the diameter of your hub bore I can see if we have an option.

According to Dexter, the inside diameter is 3 5/8”. On your web page it shows the clear plastic screw on dust cover on Kodiak rotors. That’s what I have but at above measurement

@GeraldN In that size we have the part # K1014PCAP. Is that what you were looking for?

Look at your part K2HR958QD11. Do you sell a bearing buddy for this ? Can you sell me one of the clear plastic threaded covers? I can see if the thread pattern is the same as mine.
