Hey David. The CMB-133-7XL corresponds to a mounting bracket that is designed for a Kodiak 13" disc brake system that fits a #42 Spindle. That spindle is commonly used with 7,000 lbs and 8,000 lbs axles. Which means you'll need the Dexter Bearing Kit for 7.2K - 8K Axles - Inner and Outer Bearings item # DX38ER.

The Dexter Bearing Kit item # DX38ER includes outer bearing item # 02475 with a 1.250" ID and inner bearing item # 25580 with a 1.750" ID. Unless you used a digital caliper like item # PTW80157 to measure your spindle you're not going to get an accurate measurement. Or you can measure the spindle using the diagram below.

What size lug studs are on your Kodiak hubs and do you see a part number on the hub itself? I can try to verify what size bearings you have that way as well.

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