You are going to want either our Bearing Kit #BK2-100 or the Timken Kit #TMK52VR. Both of these kits will give you the inner/outer bearings and races along with a grease seal and cotter pin/D-washer for one hub. You always want to replace the race…

Since you have a 3,500 lb axle most likely the diameter of the threaded portion of the spindle is 1 inch. You will need to verify that. And since the spindle has a hole in it for a cotter pin you would need a castle nut. For that I would recommend…

To determine the size of the brake assemblies you need you have to measure the depth and width of the hub drum on the axle like what you see in the picture I attached. The most common size is 2-1/4 inch wide like the #T4071600-500 that you…

We don't have an install video on this exact axle, the Trailer Axle w/ Electric Brakes - 4" Drop - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 95" Long - 3,500 lbs part #e45SR, but I did do one on a similar style which I have…

I reached out to CE Smith, who told me the Trailer Hub Assembly with Carrying Case for 2,500-lb Axles - 4 on 4 - Pre-Greased #CE13110 uses a marine grade grease similar to the LubriMatic Marine Trailer Wheel Bearing Grease #L54FR. At one point the…

There really isn't a particular maximum trailer weight that is used to determine when brakes need to be added to both axles of a tandem axle setup. While I do still recommend checking your local laws, I am also not aware of any general laws…

The bearings should really be repacked every 12,000 miles or 12 months whichever comes first even if you are not putting 12,000 miles on the trailer. It still a good idea to routinely repack the bearings every 12 months because the grease breaks…

In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.

From past customers we've learned that the AL KO 8460 hub/drum are 5,200 lb capacity drums that have a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. So for a replacement hub you'd want the part #8-201-5UC3. And then for a pair of brake assemblies…

With your axle being a 2-1/2" diameter it sounds like you will need either our etrailer Axle #e45SR or the Dexter #7685269-EB. Both of these are 3,500lb axles with the 4" drop a 95" hub face and electric brakes included.…

Yes, 14 gauge wire seems too small. I would go with 10 or 12 gauge. For 10 gauge you can use #10-1-1 and for 12 gauge use #12-1-1. These wires are sold in increments of 1 foot. So if you needed 20 feet of wire you would enter 20 in the quantity…

Your trailer should have an identification/safety sticker that indicates its gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) which is the most the loaded trailer can weigh. If it is a brand new trailer this will unambiguously tell you its capacity; if it was…
