Question:
I would like to replace the hub assembly on my axles. Here is my current hub and axle information Axles = D52, 5200lb, DEX 5514706, on an Outdoors RV. Inner Bearing = 25580 Outer Bearing = LM67048 Grease Seal = 010-036-00 Spindle = GP42201123 EZ Lube. Based on Dexter Product Bulletin 479, it seems that I can use replacement hubs with the 15123 outer bearing. The Dexter parts catalog lists kit K08-201-2G which is a pre-greased kit. My questions are can I use the 15123 outer bearing and is the kit K08-201-9B listed on your site the same as K08-201-2G listed on Dexter? Thank you

Hey John, thanks for all of the measurements and information! You actually need the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly item # K08-201-98. The 5,200 lbs axles require a different sized grease seal 010-036-00, which measures 2.25" in inner diameter.
The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly item # K08-201-98 is an EZ Lube hub that comes with inner bearing item # 25580 and outer bearing item # LM67048 so it's going to fit perfectly. These are sold individually and come with everything you'll need to swap out you hub.
The item # K08-201-9B, you referenced, has the wrong outer bearing so it won't match your spindle. Swapping out the bearing won't work.
What year and model is your Outdoors RV trailer and what has you looking at a replacement hub?
