Question:
Hello, I have a 2022 Flagstaff 425M pop up camper. I want to replace the hub/drums and electric brake assemblies. Will brake assembly TRU36FR and hub/drum AKHD-545-35-EZ-K work together? I want to use Timken bearing kits instead of the chinese bearings that come with the hubs. Are there hubs available that dont have the bearings, races and seals already installed? Thank you, Brent

Expert Reply:
Hey Brent! The Easy Grease Hub/Drum # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K and TruRyde Electric Trailer Brakes # TRU36FR will work together. However, all of ours come pre-greased aside from the galvanized hubs which cost quite a bit more.
The Dexter # 84546UC3 is the best option for a standard hub/drum that won't come pre-greased. This will make it a little easier to add the Timken # TMK52VR. If you don't have grease already, you can pick up some LubriMatic LMX Industrial Strength Grease # L11390.
