Are The Timken 3,500 lb Axle Bearing Kits Sold As A Pair?

Question:
Regarding the Timkin 3500 lb axle bearing kit: Part Number: TMK52VR Is it available in a pair i.e. 1 axle set? The $58 price tag is a bit much for one spindle. But I dont want to buy less expensive brands as Im not sure of their quality. Thanks,

Hey George, welcome back! The Timken 3,500 lb Axle Bearing Kit # TMK52VR is only sold individually, so you'll need two kits to service both hubs on a single axle. I definitely understand the concern with the price, but Timken is known for making high-quality bearings, and these are made in the USA, so you're getting a dependable product from a manufacturer with a great reputation.
If you're looking for something you can install and feel confident about for years to come, I think the Timken kits are worth the extra money.

I changed out my bearings and seals with these Timken kits. My RV was a couple of years of old but we were planning big trips and the quality of the oem bearings is only fair and the seals are poor. I wanted confidence in the bearings and being able to grease them with the EZ Lube fittings with out blowing out the rear seals. Mission accomplished

Thanks Jesse, I plan to install the bearings and seals on a 2016 Tandem Axle Eagle Boat trailer (for a 21-1/2 Chaparral boat). The seal is equally important to me since the trailer is subject to water while launching. At the moment, the bearings feel fine, but they are 10 years old and I may just replace the seal out of precaution. Thanks for the feedback. George
