Question:

I have a 2016 Cedar Creek Hathaway 38FL6 with 8k axles. I believe they changed from 7k to 8k axles 2016.5 and up. My question is, can I use this kit for the 8k axles?

Hi Joel!

If your Cedar Creek has the 8K axles, you'll likely different bearings than what's included with the 7K Kit # BK3-210 you mentioned. From what I could find the Cedar Creek uses Dexter axles, so the right kit should be part # DX38ER.

I only say "should" because of the weirdness of that mid-year axle change. If at all possible, I strongly suggest actually pulling one of the hubs and checking the bearing numbers stamped onto the bearings themselves. This 8K kit includes a 02475 outer bearing, 25580 inner bearing, and a 10-36 seal (the seal's inner diameter is 2.250" if you can't read the number on it).

If you do this and happen to find something different, just let me know and I'll get you the right bearings. Otherwise, I'd love to hear where you're planning on taking the trailer next!
