Can DeeMax 3,500 lb Axle Hub/Rotors Fit on 4,400 lb Trailer Axles
Updated 07/02/2025 | Published 07/01/2025
Question:
I have a 2 sets of the DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit - 10 Hub/Rotor - 5 on 4-1/2 - Maxx Coating - 3,500 lbs Part Number: DE66YR on my 7000lb trailer. Can these hubs fit on 4400lb axels? What is the axel diameter they support?

Hey Gary, this is a great question but it comes down to what brand axle you have. The Dexter 4,400 lb axles use the same bearings as the 3,500 lb axles so your current DeeMax rotors # DE66YR would work but if instead your axle is a Lippert or AL KO brand axle they would not transfer as they use a different bearing set. If you can find out your axle brand and let me know I'll be able to help further if needed.
