How to Find Replacement Hub for a Trailer Based on Spindle Dimensions
Published 08/06/2014 >
Question:
I have a bearing pair 15118 and 09074 on a spindle for 15 in 6x5 pattern. I was told when I called that this kit will be a good replacement. The problem is that the outer bearings on this kit are too large. I think the inner bearings are fine but Im worry. Could you please help ? Please let me know.

Expert Reply:
The bearing numbers you have do not cross reference with anything we offer, but I do have solution for you. You will need to use a micrometer to get exact dimensions of the spindle on your trailer so that I can see if we have a hub that will fit your spindles. Normally with bearing numbers we can find the correct hub, but since you have bearings that we have no info on we have to resort to spindle measuring.
Check out the picture I attached that shows where to measure on the spindle.
