Question:

Please recommend idler hubs for a Dexter 2,200 torsion axle with L44649 Inner/L44649 Outer fast lube spindles with a 1-1/4" seal. I plan to put 13 inch tires.

Hey Ray, for that we have the Dexter part # 8-259-5UC1-EZ which has the EZ lube grease cap as well as comes pre-greased so it's ready to go. This has the bearing numbers you mentioned needing too.

Hey Ray, did the Dexter idler hub work well with your 13-inch tires? I'm asking because your experience could help others looking for similar solutions.

@JamesonC I installed the hubs and there is lubricant flowing from the rear of the hub. Is this normal?

@Ray No that would not be normal. Did you install the included seal?

@JamesonC Yes. I ordered what you recommended, but the seal appears to be much larger than the spindle.
