Question:

Hello, I have a Carry-On 5X8SP-GEN utility trailer manufactured August 3, 2021 VIN 4YMBU0817MV058347 and would like to add the Ez-Lube feature. I see the hole at the end of the spindle for the zerk fitting and have a picture of it belowcant include. Can you tell me what parts I need, and do you sell them? Thanks

Hey Steve, thanks for the information. I tripled checked this but for whatever reason, Carry-On put a 2,000 lbs E-Z Lube axle pn 2K7158EZ on your 5' x 8' SP Series trailer and then decided to put spindles on it (pn 151T) that are not EZ-Lube.

I looked at quite a few pictures of the 151T spindle online and they do not have the hole in the rear of the spindle or on the side where the hub sits that allows the grease to travel through. If you look at the pictures for the BTR E-Z Lube Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles item # TRU44FR, you'll see not only a grease zerk but the hole at the end and on the sides.

The BTR E-Z Lube Spindle item # TRU44FR is the same size as the pn 151T on your Carry-On trailer. This would be the only solution I have to adding the EZ-Lube function to your trailer.

Do your pictures reflect the same information I found?
