Hello Eddie,
I have the perfect kit for you.
To convert your 3,500-pound Kodiak disc brakes # K2HR35DS to an oil bath, you’ll want the Kodiak XL ProLube Kit for 3,500-lb axles # XLPROLUBE1980KIT. This kit includes:
- 1 bottle of bearing lubricant
- 2 inner oil seals
- 2 oil bath caps
Be sure to remove all of the existing grease from your spindles before installing so it doesn’t contaminate the oil.
What kind of trailer is this going on?
