Question:
I have a hub that is stamped with BT150A. It is a 1991 load rite lil riderinch trailer with 8inch tires. Do you know which bearing kit I can use. I cant find any numbers on the outer bearings or seal. Another question, I plan on taking this trailer on a 300 mile trip 600 round trip carrying about 300lbs. I plan to replace the bearings and tires/rims beforehand. I was going to use the old tire/rims and bearings as spares on the trip. The trailer needs fenders too. Will the 8inch wheels be ok on a long trip like that, should I go bigger-since I am buying wheels and fenders anyway - but Id have to buy a spare too.

In order to determine which replacement bearings you would need to replace your current parts, you will need to either get the numbers that are stamped on your bearings, or you will need to get some precise measurements from your spindle.
The measurements you need will be where the seal and bearings ride. Check out the picture I attached to see which measurements are needed.
As long as your current trailer tires and rims have enough capacity for the weight that will be on your trailer you would be fine to replace them with the same sizes. If you have a 5.70-8 tire with a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern you would want the Kenda Wheel and Tire part # AM30153.
5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern part # AM30155.
If you have a 4.80/4.00-8 size tire you would want the # AM30000 if you have a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern.
Part # AM30060 if you have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern.
I attached an FAQ on determining bolt patterns and a trailer size chart.
I also attached a link to a page that has all of the fenders we carry for 8 inch wheels.
