Hello Chad, thanks for reaching out. We may have what you are looking for, but there is no way to know exactly what hubs and bearings you need base on the model of trailer.
I do see that you bought some hubs from us back in January of this year, the CE Smith Trailer Hub Assembly # CE13210. Was that hub for this same 2008 Trailstar boat trailer? If so, the # BB1980A-SS bearing buddies would work with this hub.
If you are working with a different hub, I will need to know the inner and outer bearing numbers and/or the hub bore diameter in order to recommend the correct hubs and bearing buddy.

Hey Chad, did you find out if the hubs you bought in January were for your 2008 Trailstar boat trailer? If they were, I'm curious if the bearing buddies worked out for you. Your experience could really help others in a similar situation.
