Question:
I have Dexter Never Lube axles on my 5th wheel and would like to replace them with Dexter EZ lube axles. Do they make a kit to do this?

Expert Reply:
To replace your axles it would come down to knowing the capacity of the axle you have and the distance from hub face to hub face as well as distance between spring seat centers.
