We have several grease caps that could potentially work for the hub on the axle you have on your enclosed trailer, see link to the right.
To pick out the correct size one you will need to know the pilot hole diameter on your hub. To do this, remove the wheel and tire and remove the grease cap from the center of the hub. Usually it is a metal cap that is just lightly hammered into place. Use a screwdriver to pry off the cap.
Clean the grease off and measure the opening with a dial caliper to get an exact measurement.
