Grease Seal Inner Diameter that Comes with Trailer Hub # AKIHUB-545-2-LF-2K
Question:
Hello, I am interested in this product, however my spindle has inner and outer bearings of L44649 and a 1.25 inch ID grease seal. I have noted all 5 on 4.5 inch hubs with these bearings you offer come with a 1.5 inch ID grease seal. Would I be able to receive the product with a 1.25 inch grease seal instead? If not, can you refer me to the correct seal that I would need in addition? Thank you

Expert Reply:
I wish we offered a grease seal that has the correct inner diameter for your spindle and would fit the hub you referenced but nothing we offer matches that. You seem to have a spindle with the bearing surfaces of a BTR (1.06 inch) and the grease seal dimensions of a BT8 spindle (1.25 inch.)
I'd recommend using a caliper like part # PTW80157 to measure the spindle where the seals and bearings ride to confirm this.
