Hello, I have a Triton PWC trailer with a Reliable 2700lb Torsion Axle 08351. I would like to purchase 2 hub assemblies for this trailer. The lug pattern in 5x4.5. Are you able to help me locate the correct part number? Thanks in advance!

Yes, I am and thanks for the information. It looks like your Reliable 2700lb Torsion Axle 08351 has a 1-1/16" x 1-1/16" spindle. I have two options for replacements and which one you need is going to be determined by how big your PWC trailer's wheels are. I have listed the two options below;
13" to 14" Wheels - CE Smith Trailer Idler Hub Assembly w/ Case for 2.7K Axles - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized - Pre-Greased - item # CE13315
8", 10", 12" Wheels - Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,700-lb Axles - Pre-Greased - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized item # DX77UR
What size wheels do you have?

I'm not convinced that response is necessarily correct for all #08351 applications. It depends on the manufacture date of the trailer axle from Reliable. I have the 2005 triton elite trailer with that same Reliable rubber torsion axle. However, the axles spindles are tapered. The outer part of the axle spindle requires bearing 1-1/16 inch diameter as you propose. However, the inner bearing spindle shoulder is 1.50 inch diameter and requires a different bearing. At any rate, CE Smith kit #13315 did not fit my Reliable 2700ib beam capacity axle. I had to make up my own kit with: inner cone # L68149 and inner cup #L68111
