All About the Grease Seal Video

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…

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.

The ALKO 4,400 lb axles use the same bearing sizes as the standard 3,500 lb alxes. If you want USA made bearings, I recommend the Bearing Kit #TMK52VR. This kit comes with the Timken brand bearings which are all made here in the USA.

After you've packed the bearings and assembled everything, carefully slide the hub assembly onto the spindle and install the outer bearing. Install the spindle and tang washer and run the spindle nut down finger tight, then rotate the hub back…

An oil seal like Redline part #9103309 installs in the back side of the hub (the side nearest the trailer's frame) with the sides or "legs" of the seal inserted into the hub's bore. This means that the flat metal surface of the seal…

When installing a seal at the back of a hub the outer part of the seal will need to be flush with the hub. I have linked a video that should help. You could watch the whole video or fast forward to the 1 minute, 50 second mark to see the seal…

Good morning, James. The Titan 4843100 disc brake kit uses the Titan 225 Calipers. The correct replacement for this is the Dexter calipers #K71-773-02 for passenger side and #K71-773-01 for drivers side. The Dexter Disc Brake Assembly #T10HREKITBB…

Yes, the Hi-Tem Red Grease part #L24FR that you referenced would do a great job keeping brake components like push pins and calipers lubricated.

Hello Clark, thanks for reaching out. Do you happen to know the axle capacity of your lance travel trailer? Knowing that will help tremendously to narrow down what brakes you need, and unfortunately there is no way for me to look up your trailer to…

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 that…

Hey James, The bearing numbers used on your trailer aren't listed by the manufacturer unfortunately so we'll need to either remove and check them for their part numbers (if still legible) or measure the spindle and hub using a digital caliper…
