In order to make sure you get the correct replacement hubs on your trailer we will need a bit more information. The easiest way to find that information is to find the numbers on the bearing and races. using those numbers will make sure we find the correct hub that will fit your spindle.

If you cannot find the numbers on your bearings or races, you can take some measurements of the spindle on your trailer using a precision instrument like a digital caliper. You would need to measure the places noted in the drawing and then measure the inside diameter of the hub you are replacing.

You may find that a hub assembly like part # 84545UC1-EZ will work for you. It is rated for 3,500 lb axles, and includes the bearings, races, seal, E-Z Lube grease cap, and wheel bolt with lug nuts.

If your axle is rated for 2,200 lbs, part # 8-258-50UC1-EZ, may work for you trailer. This includes all the components needed for installation as well.

I have attached a helpful article that shows how to determine the wheel bolt pattern you can check out. I have also attached a couple of videos that show how to replace hubs and bearings you may want to take a look at.
