Hey Ronald, thanks for reaching out!

I'd be happy to help find the correct replacement hubs and bearings. The Dexter axle is a 3,500 lb axle but the hub markings H-545 and 1912 are casting numbers and don't truly identify the hub assembly.

Could you send me the wheel bolt pattern, whether the trailer has brakes and the bearing numbers stamped on the bearings? With that information, I can narrow down the correct hub and bearing kits for your trailer.

Do you typically launch in saltwater or freshwater?

Ronald, I can’t tell you if this hub assembly will fit your application, but what I can tell you is DO NOT use the supplied lug nuts! The timing of this question is ironic because last Sunday I was heading out camping with my boat, with these exact hubs and supplied lug nuts. The lug nuts stripped right off the studs and caused me to loose a wheel on the highway and damaged my trailer and thus no boat on my week long fishing trip! And a $613 tow bill. The hub held up great, the bearings are great, DO NOT use the supplied lug nuts!!
