Can Two Different Hubs that Use the Different Bearings Be Used on Same Trailer Axle
Question:
As long as the hubs or drums I am using accept the correct bearing race, is it ok to use a hub assembly with the 15123 outer bearing on one side of the axle and a hub assembly that uses LM67048 on the other side of the axle using the same #42 spindles? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The # LM67048 and the # 15123 both have the same inner diameter of 1.250 inches. So in theory they would both work on the same spindle. It sounds like you are thinking about using two different hubs on your trailer axle. As long as the hubs both use bearings and seals that fit the spindle they are used on you would be fine.
