Spindle Sleeve Style Grease Seal for Trailer Spindle that Uses Bearing Numbers L44649
Updated 09/02/2025 | Published 06/21/2025 >
Question:
Im replacing the hubs on my 1987 Calkins boat trailer. The wheel bearings are L44649 inner and outer bearings. Im assuming the spindle is 1 1/16. The issue I have is the surface that the grease seal sits on is slightly pitted and I need spindle sleeves. The diameter of the spindle where the grease seal sits is 1.25. Do you sell spindle sleeves, I cannot seem to locate them on your website.
