Question:
Hello. I’m trying to convert a trailer from grease to oil bath hubs and want to upgrade to 17.5” tires and wheels also. I’m thinking about these wheels but will they work with Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 8,000-lb Axles - 8 on 6-1/2 - Oil Bath Part Number: 8-285-10UC3-A Thank you very much!

Hey Andy, the wheel part # TA36MR that you referenced will work on the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-285-10UC3-A but you will need to replace the included lug nuts with flange style lug nuts like the part # LI84FR as that is the type of lug that the wheel you referenced is designed to attach with. What trailer do you have and what made you want to go to an oil bath setup instead?
