Do You Have a Replacement Hub for a Straight Spindle w/ LM11949 Bearings?  

Updated 03/04/2026 | Published 01/30/2026

Question:

Im looking to replace hubs on an old Kayak trailer I have which uses a 3/4 inch straight spindle and both inner and outer bearings are LM11949. What options do you have. Wasnt able to understand when I searched if the pre-packed hub with this configuration is available. Thanks.

Hey Oren, thanks for the information and welcome back! We do not have any replacement hubs with item # LM11949 inner and outer bearings so that would explain your difficulties tracking one down.

I saw you were looking at the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3,500-lb Axles item # AKIHUB-5475-35-K. This hub has a 5 on 4-3/4 lug nut pattern and fits a common #84 spindle with inner bearing item # L68149 and outer bearing item # L44649.

My only option to replace your hub is going to be to cut off your old spindles and install new ones like item # TRU84FR that have a common size for a replacement hub. This one is 11-1/4" overall and has a 1-3/4" diameter.

What lug nut pattern do your wheels/hubs currently have and are you interested in replacing your spindles?

You can add this information, along with any other questions you have, where it says Add Comment.

Hey Oren, did you get a chance to check your wheel’s lug nut pattern or decide if you want to replace the spindles on your kayak trailer? Once you know that, it’ll be easier to narrow down the right hub setup. Let me know what you find—I’m here if you need a hand sorting through the options.
