E-Z Lube and Easy Grease-Compatible Assembly for Simple Lubrication

The grease cap on this hub is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube or etrailer Easy Grease axle to make lubricating bearings quick and easy. Just remove the plug on the grease cap, attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle, and inject the grease. It will flow easily to both inner and outer bearings. Not only does this make lubricating the bearings easy, but it also helps to prevent corrosion of the hub. This is because you can lubricate the bearings without the mess of taking apart the entire assembly.


Determining the Bolt Pattern

The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.


Bolt Pattern - Even

On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: 8 on 6-1/2 means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)


Bolt Pattern - Odd

To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: 5 on 4-1/2 means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)


Bolt Pattern - Side

Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

  • If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
  • If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
  • If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
  • If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

Purchased for a spare hub assembly to carry in vehicle for possible bearing or seal failure during fishing trips. Much easier to get back on road versus seal and bearings replacement on road.



by:

Very knowledgeable pleasure to work with



by:

etrailer is a great place, and has excellent sales people who are knowledgeable and patient with folks who don't know quite what they need. Highly recommended.



by:

Product was a great fit, easy to install if you know what you are doing. Took only 10 minutes to repack bearings and assemble.



by:

Though supply chain issues slowed down my original order, etrailer found a suitable substitute, and even saved me some money in the process. I don’t do a lot of work on trailers, but when I do, I know where I’ll be getting my parts.



by:

Used an axle conversion kit to ‘flip’ the axle on my ‘08 Forrest River pop up and give it a lift. Put on the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub for 2K Axles - 13" to 15" Wheels - 5 on 4-1/2 - Pre-Greased from etrailer, then switched the 12” stock tires to Contender ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 14" Silver Mod Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range C to lift it a little more while also putting a sturdier tire on. Works great!

Very pleased with the service and help I received making sure I ordered the correct hub it was very easy to install.

We recently sent you a new hub assembly and were wondering if you had any feedback about the product for other shoppers?



by:

The hubs arrived in a timely manner and were well packaged. Etrailer was great when I contacted them with installation questions. Hubs have been installed for about a year and are working perfectly.



by:

Received parts yesterday and everything arrived in excellent condition. Without etrailer's helpful guides it would have taken a lot longer to identify the correct Hub's and bearing's that I needed for my jet ski trailer. I always go to etrailer for my trailer needs!!!! I have a jet ski trailer, boat trailer, and 36.5 foot 5th wheel camper. So I'm always needing parts!!!



by:

We pack the bearings in these hubs and carry them along for spare, ready to install on the trailer if bearing goes bad while on the road. We use these trailers for trips from northern Indiana to south florida, than to Iowa. Then back to Indiana. So its a lot faster to just change the whole hub when you have trouble.



by:

Perfect fit made for an easy installati on



by:

Excellent kit. Simply take off old hub and slide the new hub on. Comes pre-packed with what appears to be Lubrimax (green) marine grease.



by:

Good product, good price. Jenny B was very helpful and knowledgeable, to ensure I received the correct part. Just what I needed for my enclosed motorcycle trailer.



by:

Great price, good quality. This is the same hube as AKIHUB-545-2-2k, but NOT pre-assembled and pre-greased. Perfect if you want to do this work yourself or need to do work on the hubs prior to usage.

Exactly what I needed and shipped fast and free!!! Pleasure to do business with

Product installed easily and was a good quality hub. changed both hubs. etrailer is the best. Allison was very professional and knew her products.

  • Do Pre-Greased Trailer Hubs Require Any Greasing Prior to Install

  • Recommended Trailer Hub and Spindle for Compatibility with Wheels
    Unfortunately you do have an odd size spindle. My recommendation is to replace the spindle with the BTR E-Z Lube Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles - 1-1/4" Diameter # TRU44FR and then use hubs like the following options based on your bolt pattern: -Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 4 on 4 - L44649 Bearings - Pre-Greased # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-2K -Trailer Idler Hub for 2K E-Z Lube Axles - 13" to 15" Wheels - 5 on 4-1/2 - Pre-Greased # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K This will...

  • Correct Replacement Hubs for Lowe Trailer 5KTBS
    If you're looking for an idler hub assembly then the correct one is the Trailer Idler Hub part # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K but if you're looking for a hub/drum then the correct one is the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-257-5UC3-EZ. These both use a 5 on 4-1/2" pattern and have L44649 bearings which measure 1.063" inner diameter.

  • Replacement Hub for 4-1/8 Inch Long Idler Hub
    Both the # AKIHUB-440-2-2K and the # 8-258BTUC1 have a the same 4-1/4" length. This shouldn't be a problem, but you will need to know which bearings you have right now since these are different. They also have different bolt patterns so you will need to choose the right bolt pattern. The # AKIHUB-440-2-2K is designed to fit a BTR spindle and uses # L44649 inner and outer bearings. It has a 4 on 4 bolt pattern. The # 8-258BTUC1 is for a BT8 spindle which uses # L44643 inner and outer bearings...

  • Recommended Replacements for Dexter 8-257 Trailer Hubs
    An 8-257 hub is a 5 on 4-1/2 hub for 2,000 pound axles. They fit onto a BTR spindle which uses # L44649 for both the inner and outer bearings which have an inner diameter of 1.063 inches. If any of this doesn't match what you have let me know. If you just need the idler hubs and not the hub and drum assemblies we have # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K that are for E-Z Lube spindles. Or use # AKIHUB-545-2-LF-2K for standard spindles. If your spindles have a zerk fitting on the end of them then...

  • What would be the Best Option for an Axle to Install on a Small Trailer Frame
    I have a solution for you. However, with the 41 inch frame width, finding a one piece straight axle to fit this measurement will be difficult. I recommend the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System, # ASR400S02. The Timbren axle-less system will mount to the frame of your trailer and will give you additional clearance under the center of your trailer. This system will replace the need for the leaf spring suspension. The Timbren system uses Aeon rubber springs that are will provide...

    Hey Jose, There unfortunately isn't a guide to tell us the exact hub needed for your 2017 Flagstaff MAC 206LTD so we'll first need to know your bearing and grease seal combination as well the axle capacity and wheel bolt pattern. You'll need to either measure the spindle or check the face of your bearings and grease seal for their part numbers.

  • Pre Greased Hub that Fits 2,000 lb Trailer Axle with 14 inch Wheels
    Your trailer has 2,000 lb axles which is very common and also what the replacement hub part # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K that you referenced is designed to fit on. Since you have a 14 inch trailer wheel that also means the bolt pattern of this matches your wheel too. If you were to have a bearing or seal issue a pre-greased hub like this would be a very simple solution to swap onto the spindle instead of trying to replace the individual components.

  • Difference Between Hubs Designed For 8-10 Wheels and Hubs Designed For 13-15 Wheels
    The difference between a hub that fits a 8-10" wheel like part # 34822545BX and 13-15" wheels like part # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K is normally the hub diameter but that is not always the case. Some hubs are designed for larger wheels because the diameter of the idler hub is larger. Some manufacturers label their hubs to only be used with certain wheel sizes. The AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K hub that fits 13-15" wheels is 6.25" compared to Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles part...

  • Will the 2K Timbren Axle-Less System A20RS545 Work with 15 Inch wheels
    I do have what you need but the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System part # A20RS545 will only work with wheels up to 13" diameter because the hubs do not have enough surface area to support this larger size wheel. Instead, you would want to use the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System part # ASR2000S01 with the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K as this would provide you with a hub size that is compatible with the larger 15" wheels.

  • Recommended Hub and 14-15 Inch Wheel and Tire for Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension
    It looks like you ordered the Timbren # ASR1200S02 which uses # L44649 bearings. I recommend using the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub for 2K Axles # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K which is designed for 13" to 15" wheels. You won't find 14" or 15" wheels that can use a 4 on 4 bolt pattern so you're definitely going to need a hub with a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern like this one. I'm not entirely sure what your setup is like but you will need to make sure you have clearance for the larger tires. At a minimum...

You can determine the spindle by removing your current hub and inspecting the bearings or by measuring the spindle itself.

  • Replacement Bearing Kit and 5 on 4-1/2 Inch Bolt Pattern Idler Hub for 1-1/16 Inch Diameter Spindle
    Thank you for the information. I was able to confirm with my contact at Dexter Axle that your spindle does have the 1-1/16" diameter so you would need the equivalent of 2 of the 031-031-02 bearings and 1 of the 010-060-00 seals for each hub. This means the replacement bearing kit # BK1-150 is what you'd need for your axle so for a replacement hub you need the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub for 2K Axles - 13" to 15" Wheels - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K.

    I do have a solution for you, but we do not recommend using vehicle tires on a trailer. Trailer tires are built with stronger sidewalls to help resist the load that is put on them, while vehicle tires are made for a more smooth ride. Also, we do not carry spacers that are intended to make your tire and wheel stick out so that it can clear your trailer frame.
