Hey Jason, no worries at all most people just assume we know so thanks for asking! There's no database that shows what parts trailers have like you see with cars. The easiest way to determine what size your spindle is will be to remove one of your hubs and see if there are part numbers stamped into the sides of the inner and outer bearing.
If you can't read the numbers on the sides of the bearings, or there aren't any, you'll need to use a digital caliper like item # PTW80157 to measure the spindle at points B, C, and D from the diagram below.
To replace your hub, I'll also need to know the lug pattern so I don't recommend one that doesn't fit your wheels. I have linked a FAQ article below that will help you identify yours if you're unsure.
Once you get this information go ahead and throw it into the comment box below and I'll be happy to find you the correct replacement bearings and seals.
