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"

Great no problems.

Good pricing and fast shipping. Great p roducts.

Easy ordering and received quick. Already put on trailer and works great. Exact duplicate to what I had



by:

I have an old homemade trailer I use for hauling my tractor. The seals and bearings seemed to be failing on the front axle so after watching your video I decided to replace the hubs. I did order the wrong hub,the bearings were slightly larger than the ones on the old hub but after trying it anyway it looks like they are going to work just fine! Fast delivery. Pre-Greased hubs work great!

Doesn’t fit inside the brake rotor on my dexter 6k hubs.

Hey Chris, it sounds like you have slip on disc brakes. Can you be more specific about why the idler hub does not fit inside? Is the bolt pattern different? This particular idler hub has a 6 on 5 and a half bolt pattern. If you let me know what you have on your trailer I can assist you further. A photo will help as well.



by:

I ordered hub kit to replace the house trailer hubs on my trailer. This was the right fit and a great price.. The kit came with all the bearings, seals, dust caps, lug studs, and lug nuts.. Great place to pick up all your trailer needs!



by:

These hubs arrived greased, assembled and ready for installation. Can't ask for more than that!

Greetings Nickey;
I received
the 4 hubs Yesterday and am glad to say, they are very Heavy Duty. My plans are to replace the Mobile Home hubs on my 18' trailer to have a modern trailer with heavy Duty hubs that use the more easily available 6 bolt wheels. The old style Mobile Home wheels W/ tires are no longer available in this area, and very expensive when you do locate any.
Many thanks for your follow-up, as this shows your concern for your products and most importantly,,,your customers.



by:

Fit right and the hud doesn't brake like other hubs .we used on are equipment.



by:

got them a head of time. shipping was fast. didn't have any problem installing them.



by:

Worked well for the many miles we’ve put on them! Etrailer also has the best customer service! I had to call and ask a few questions before placing an order and they answered everything without hesitation.



by:

Shipping was extremely fast and great prices. The hubs arrived and were a perfect fit. Will definitely shop here again for any trailer needs! The wife's reaction when she grabbed the box from the UPS driver was priceless, she had no idea that 4 hubs would way so much lol.



by:

Excellent customer service which I find to be a dieing art, quick turnaround and I received exactly what they advertised. Quality parts and attention to detail. I’ll be ordering again and again.



by:

"I will give your company the highest rating I can. Service was good ,no problems. Parts came in quick. I had no trouble installing them."

  • Replacing the Axle on a Gooseneck Horse Trailer
    An axle flip kit like part # K71-384-00 will raise the trailer the diameter of the axle plus the height of the leaf spring pack. I do have options for you but rotating the axle to where the bend faces the other direction is not one of them. The bend in the axle will actually straighten out once a load is placed on the trailer and if this was reversed, the axle would lose capacity. Now from this point forward you have two options both of which entail replacing the axle. Since your current...

  • Replacement for 826555 Idler Hub on Boat Trailer
    It sounds like you have 6K axle, if that's the case we do offer a hub that should work for you. Part # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K is an idler hub assembly for a 6K axle with a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. The hub uses a 25580 inner and 15123 outer bearing along with a GS2250DL grease seal. To confirm that this is correct, please check the reference numbers on your inner and outer wheel bearings, or you can use a digital caliper like # PTW80157 to measure the surface of the spindle where the inner...

  • Smallest Diameter Trailer Tire with At Least 1,800 Pounds Capacity and Parts for Building a Trailer
    Assuming the trailer is as single axle and only has two tires the smallest we carry is a 205/75-14 size tire. The Kenda # AM10235 measures 26.3 inches in diameter and has a weight capacity of 2,200 pounds at 75 psi. You also want to make sure the wheel has enough capacity. If you can tell me your bolt pattern I can recommend a wheel as well.

  • Dexter Axle Hub Conversion for 14.5 Inch or 15 Inch Wheels on Equipment Trailer
    Thanks for the information on your trailer. For your axle with brakes I recommend the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 5,200-lb and 6,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 12" - 6 on 5-1/2 # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K if you have the spindles with the integrated grease zerk. If you have standard spindles, I recommend # AKHD-655-6-K which have the standard grease cap instead. These assemblies will fit perfectly with your axles based on the bearing and seal information you gave as well as 14.5 inch wheels. Then...

  • Will 16 Inch Tires Fit Timbren Axle-Less Suspension System # ASR35HDS05
    As long as there is a hub that fits the spindle and has the bolt pattern needed for the wheels then yes the Timbren Axle-less system # ASR35HDS05 will work with 7.50-16 tires. For example hub # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K will accept 16 inch tires as long as the wheel has a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern. I have linked a help article on determining wheel bolt patterns for you.

  • Locating Replacement Hubs for 2004 Four Winns Trailer
    In order to determine the correct replacement hubs for your 2004 Four Winns Trailer you will need to pull one of the assemblies. Once you have the hub removed take out the inner and outer bearings and look for a number that should be stamped right inside of each of them. If you can't read the numbers you can also take a few measurements along the spindle with a digital caliper. I have attached an image to assist. If you can tell me the numbers you found, or the measurements you took,...

  • Hubs to Use With Kodiak Disc Brake Kit K2R526DKG
    Since the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit part # K2R526DKG is a slip on disc brake kit you would need an idler hub like the part # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K which is a 6k hub and has the correct 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. We don't have a Dexter hub in this configuration but the etrailer hub I mentioned would work really well and is also pre-greased with LMX red grease too for an easier and cleaner install.

  • Trailer Lights Do Not Work and Brakes Lock Up in Reverse
    If none of the lights on your boat trailer are working then it most likely the fuse on the tow vehicle. I know you said you have checked them but it is imperative to look in your owner's manual to be sure you have the correct locations for each circuit. Once you do find the correct circuits you will need to remove each fuse and inspect the element to make sure there is not a break. The break can be faint so be sure to pay special attention. If you are absolutely certain the fuses are good...

  • Will Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System HD 3,500 Lbs Work without Brakes
    Yes, you can still use the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System like part # ASR35HDS01 without brakes and just hubs. The Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # 8-231-9UC1-EZ for 8 lug or the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K for 6 lug will both work great.

  • Recommended Axle and Suspension Upgrade for Converting Pop-Up Camper to Stand-Up Tear Camper
    In order to put a heavier suspension on your trailer you will need an axle, leaf springs, hangers, spring seats (if you need to move them), suspension bolts, U-bolts/U-bolt plates, and shackle straps (if you want a double-eye leaf spring). You will need to start with the axle, which will require the hub face to hub face dimensions of your current axle. While the spring seat to spring seat measurement can be helpful, it is possible to remove the spring seats and weld on new ones if necessary....

  • Availability of 5,200 lb Axle With Idler Hubs
    Although we do not have a version of the # e75SR that comes with idler hubs, we do have the parts needed to put this together. All you need is the # e55GR along with the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K. This is pre-greased so it is ready to go. The hubs have a slightly higher capacity at 6k but they use the same bearings and grease seal so it won't hurt anything. You will still be limited by the 5,200 lb capacity of the axle.

  • 6 On 5-1/2" Idler Hub Assembly for Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # ASR35HDS02
    For the Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # ASR35HDS02 they use a larger spindle than the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # 84655UC1 you found. Instead you will need the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K and need to switch to the Grease Seal # GS-2125DL on the hub. This hub has the same 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern as the hub you found. The Timbren # ASR35HDS02 places the hub face 8" from the frame rail while the Timbren # ASR2KHDS02 places the hub face at 8-1/2" from...

  • Replacement Hub for #42 Spindle on Homemade Trailer
    Although we do have hubs that will fit your #42 spindle, nobody makes one with a 5 on 4-1/2 or 4 on 4 bolt pattern. The only option would be to use something like the Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K. This hub and drum assembly has a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern and is designed for 5,200 lb and 6,000 lb axles. If you need brakes as well then you could use the # AKEBRK-6 along with the # BRKH12 mounting hardware. If you only need an idler hub the # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K...

  • Do Different Timbren Axle-Less Suspension Systems Have the Same Camber and Ride Height
    The caster and camber could be the same on the # TASR35HDS03 and # ASR2KHDS05. The system has a slight manufacture camber. However, it is up to you on how much camber you have based on the installation. This can be changed using the included shims. As far as the ride height is concerned, these do not have the same dimensions. This will result in a different height between the systems when installed. The # TASR35HDS03 will also stick out farther. Since there is no real advantage to using...

  • Which Hubs Fit the Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # TASR35HDS06 with 2" Lift

For regular hub use part # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K but if you are wanting to incorporate brakes then you want hub and drum part # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K with the brakes # AKEBRK-7-SA for electric or # AKFBBRK-7 for hydraulic.

  • Will 15 Inch Trailer Wheels Fit etrailer Idler Hub AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K
    A 15 inch wheel may not fit idler hub # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K. It was designed for the larger pilot holes on 16 to 18-1/2 inch wheels. But both 15 and 16 inch wheels have a 4.25 inch diameter pilot hole so provided the wheels you have now have a pilot hole that is 4.25 inches or larger it will fit the hub.

    I have an alternative solution for you to consider but based on the info you listed we don't have a standard trailer hub that will fit in place of what you have now. This is not uncommon as mobile home axles are generally considered to be one-time-use. Most likely you'll need new axles. We do have axles available if you need a replacement. Using the capacity, overall length, and spring center length you can find the right axle for your needs. I attached a page that has all of the trailer...

  • Hubs and Wheels to Fit 3,500 Pound Heavy Duty Timbren Axle-less System
    The # TASR35HDS07 Timbren system is a heavy-duty system so it actually fits higher rated hubs than its 3,500 pound capacity. I recommend going with # AKIHUB-655-6-EZ-K which fit the Timbrens and are for the EZ Lube spindles.ve The hubs have a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern so the tire and wheel combo I recommend is part # AM32575. These are 225/75-15 radials on black steel wheels. If you prefer a different style I've linked our entire selection of of combos on 15 inch wheels for you.

  • Replacement Spindles, Hubs and Brake Assemblies For Custom Trailer Using Shortened Mobile Home Axles
    Based on the image you sent of the spindle it looks like you will be best off replacing the spindles with the more common #42 Spindle # TRU37FR. The spindles are severely rusted and the grease seal would not hold seal properly allowing water to get in and damage any hubs you install. It would be best to install this on all the ends of your axles so you will have the common sizes when you need to replace parts as the mobile home axles do not use common parts since they are designed to be...
