Question:
I purchased hub kit #84545C1-Ez and now I need a new axle as well. Will the dexter axle #T20BTR-EZ-7258 fit with the hub kit I already purchased from you? The axle length is perfect fit. I need to keep the 5 on 4-1/2 hub. Thank you.

Expert Reply:
The Dexter Trailer Idler Axle Beam with EZ-Lube Spindles # T20BTR-EZ-7258 that you referenced has a BTR spindle on it that takes a hub with an inner and outer bearing of L44649.
This would not work with your hubs because they have inner bearing of L68149 and an outer bearing of L44649.
To use the axle you referenced you would need to go with the Trailer Hub Assembly # 8-258-5UC1 instead.
At 72 inches in length there are no axles we carry that would fit the hubs you have.
