BTR and BT8 are the reference numbers for a standard trailer spindle size. When picking out a hub for a trailer you have to make sure that the hub is designed to fit the spindle. What you will need to do is measure spindles on your trailer where the…

Based on your dimensions you have a BT8 style hub so the part #AKIHUB-440-2-1K you mentioned would fit and work well. The length of your spindle matches what this is compatible with as well.

So 4.80-8, vs. 4.80 X 8, and. 4.80/4.00-8 tire sizes are all the same, just different ways of saying it. And for hub width, that isn't an issue, and because the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly #AKIHUB-440-2-1K has a 4 on 4" bolt pattern, and fits…

Your Dexter 8-259 #8-259-5UC1 will use the Bearing Kit #BK1-150 for each hub. I recommend filling the bearings with the Grease #L11390 when you install them.

The 12 inch tires that we carry are rated for 65 miles per hour. Any faster than that for extended periods and the excessive heat build up will cause tire failure. To get a tire with a higher speed rating you would have to go up in size. That also…

Based on the measurements of your spindle you provided the most likely replacement hub is the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles #AKIHUB-440-2-G-1K which uses Inner and Outer Bearing #L44643 which is 1" I.D and uses the 4 on 4 bolt…
