The Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2K Axles # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-2K is compatible with standard 2,000 lb axles from most manufacturers. It looks like your Karavan probably uses a KNOTT axle and hub assembly so you will need to measure to find out if the # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-2K will fit.

I have attached a diagram showing where to measure on your spindle to find the inner diameter of your bearings and grease seal. You might be able to measure bearings or find part numbers, but I believe the KNOTT hub is self contained so you may not be able to remove the bearings. I recommend using a caliper like the # PTW80157 for accurate measurements.

The # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-2K uses a # L44649 inner and outer bearing with an inner diameter of 1.063" and a # 10-9 grease seal with an inner diameter of 1.5". If you find that this matches up with your measurements then this hub will work as a replacement.

I have attached a review video for your reference.
