E-Z Lube and Easy Grease-Compatible Hub 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"

They are working great may get another set for my other boat or utility trailer. Cheaper that pulling them and replacing brearings and seals or even just greasing them.



by:

Etrailer is the best. They've got your back!!



by:

The two new trailer idler hubs fit perfectly with the trailer spindles. The whole process of removing the old ones and installing the new ones was relatively easy without any difficulties at all. It also appears that the quality and the engineering designs of the new hubs are much better than my old ones. These are great products with good prices. A couple of pictures are attached for more info. Thank you...

It was just what I ordered, Came in real quick, Will order more from them!

Excellent hub but it does not fit old Harbor Freight 1,195 Lb Folding Trailer Item #62648 axel. Spindle is too short for this hub. Need new axel and hubs for the older trailer. New trailer Item #62666.

The axle hubs are great. I really liked that the bearing races where already install in the hubs. The produced was just as shown in the pictures, you didn't have to guess on what was included. All I had to do is pack the bearings with grease, clean the axle shaft a little, install the hub kit with a little more grease, reuse my old washer ( spacer ). Install the old nut and carter pin, install the cap, put on the tires with the new lug nuts ,that came with the kit. It did not take but about 45 minutes to the side. I was in no big rush!

The hub kits and bearings are still doing great. Thanks again

I contacted etrailer with a question regarding a very old small boat trailer. My customer service rep, Jane S, was able to determine my trailer need a diffrent complete Hub/bearings kit than I had intended to order! She determined the one I mentioned to her was slightly larger, and would do damage to the spindles over time! I ordered, then recieved an additonal email from Jane S advising she was able to get the order shipped to me within two days! etrailer is my go to source from this date forward!

Excellent!

The hub assembly is well made and fit as advertised. In stock and readily available. We have purchased from etrailer.com in the past, and no complaints.



by:

After finding etrailer online, I ordered the parts I thought I needed (Hub and bearing kits). They arrived within days, they fit perfectly and they are still going strong on a well-used trailer. I would go to them first if I need anything else. Very satisfied.

Still frequently using the trailer with your wheels and hubs. No problems at all. Thank you.

Great product, arrived quickly. Originally ordered galvanized however I was quickly told they would not ship for a few weeks and these were an option. Thanks to the great sales personnel.

I just recently purchased a hub kit from etrailer it come with the hub bearings and the race and the cap it took less than ten minutes to install I would recommend this product to everyone the cost is half what the neighborhood hardware store I plan on using this company in future

Still working flawlessly



by:

All was good



by:

The part worked perfectly and was completely full of grease, and had both the solid and rubber cap grease caps. The reason for only four stars was the packaging. The solid grease cup was slightly damage in shipment, but I was able to straighten and use it.



by:

The replacement hubs and bearings arrived before I thought they would. Just packed the bearings with grease. Greased the spindle and hub races; assembled and put on my trailer. Good to go. Don't like the hub cap that came with kit. Prefer solid caps that came on the trailer originally.



by:

Very happy with etrailer!
Easy to shop
on there site, prices were great, service was fast and the order
Was correct.
I found hubs and spindles for a project that are going to make it a lot easier than anticipated.

The products were received in a timely manner, I was glad to get them as quickly as I did. The products, trailer tires, rims and fender was all of good quality and look forward of them lasting a long time. Thank you very much.

Customer service was excellent. Everything I ordered came in 3days. I will buy from etrailer again.

  • Is Pre-Greased etrailer Idler Hub Suitable for a Boat Trailer
    The Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2K Axles # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-1K comes with a Lithium complex, multipurpose grease which would be okay on a boat trailer but wouldn't be the best type of grease. Since you'll be using this for a boat trailer I recommend using the CE Smith Trailer Hub Assembly # CE13110 instead because it comes pre-greased as well, but it uses a heavy-duty, marine-grade grease instead so it is much more suitable for a boat application.

For the 2k spindle you can use the # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-1K if you need a 4 on 4 bolt pattern or the # AKIHUB-545-2-LF-1K for a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern.

  • 1991 Starcraft Starflyer Replacement 4-Lug Pattern Idler Hub Recommendation
    I can get you most of the way there, but ultimately you'll have to pull the hubs on your 1991 Starcraft Starflyer to determine the correct hub. Pop up trailers typically have 2,000 lb axles. Since you have a 2K axle and a 4 lug bolt pattern this narrows down your choices to 2 different hubs, so just compare the bearing number to what I list below and choose the option that matches: - L44649 Bearings # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-2K - L44643 Bearings # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-1K

    I have a way to help you find out what replacement hub assembly you need, but you'll need to verify some things on your end as I don't have a list of replacement parts for your trailer available. Since your 1992 Ranger Trail is a tandem axle trailer rated for 4,800 lbs this indicates that you have 2 axles rated at 2,000 lbs.

  • Should Grease be Used to Fill Space Inside After Hub Installation
    When installing your Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2K Axles - 4 on 4 - Pre-Greased # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-1K there should not be any "play" or space. Since it is pre-greased, more grease is not needed. I recommend checking your spindle to make sure this hub is correct. It uses a # L44643 inner and outer bearing, so your spindle should measure 1" where both bearings ride.

    The correct replacement hub will depend on your bearings. All of our 4 on 4 hubs use a # L44643 inner and outer bearing or # L44649 inner and outer bearing. You will need to look for part numbers on your existing bearings or measure the inner diameter. You could also measure the spindle where the bearings ride. If you have L44643 bearings (1" inner diameter) you can use # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-1K and for L44649 (1.063" ID) you can use # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-2K.

  • Do You Carry A Trailer Hub For Mounting On a 3/4" Straight Spindle?
    Personally, I do not recommend using a bearing reducer with the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-1K as that just adds an additional item which can fail. Instead the best route would be to upgrade to the BT8 Spindle # TRU59FR which will also give you a more commonly found part which will allow you to more easily get parts if you ever have a roadside breakdown. Currently we do not carry any hubs which will fit on a 3/4" straight spindle.

This would be the closest option we have available. I can suggest a few replacement hubs that fit the 1 inch axle, however. If your wheels have a 5 on 4 1/2 bolt pattern, you would need either # AKHD-545-2-1K or # AKIHUB-545-2-1K. If you have a 4 on 4 bolt pattern, you would need # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-1K.
