The Dexter Trailer Hub Assembly, part # 42655UC1, is designed to fit 6,000 axles with a spindle that requires a grease seal with a 2-1/4 inch inside diameter.

There are a couple of ways you can make sure you get the right size hub for your trailer. There is normally a plate or sticker on the trailer or axle that states what the weight capacity is.

You can pull the bearings and seals from your trailer and look for the numbers as shown in the attached photo. If you cannot find the numbers on the bearing or seal, you can use a precision instrument like a digital caliper and measure the spindle in the places noted on the photo.

I have attached a helpful article that shows how to replace the bearings, seals, and races on a trailer hub you can check out.
