Came as ordered, easy tracking will use etrailer again.

Product was received as ordered. The box with the hubs and spindles was soaking wet and product was exposed. One of the boxes with tire and rim was torn open on the back. No apparent damage to any of the product. Typical UPS delivery.



by:

The part is just what we needed. I would ask for better packing to assure parts don't get lost in shipping. I would also ask that there be a packing list included in the box for the receiving team to identify PO it belongs to.



by:

great price and they are working good. the unmachined side is about .015" over size so if your going to weld this in DOM tubing you need to grind or machine a little. Works really well, nice machine work on them



by:

The products don’t have any damage at all. We need to return it because they are the wrong size. Can you please let me know what do I have to do? Thanks



by:

Excellent delivery and just what we nee ded.



by:

The spindles themself are heavy and seem like good products but they were layed loose in box nothing keeping them from getting banged around in the box

  • Comparing Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly 8-219-4UC3-EZ and 8-219-4UC3
    The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-219-4UC3 fits a standard #42 Spindle # TRU57FR. While the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-219-4UC3-EZ fits a E-Z Lube #42 Spindle # TRU37FR. You will need to select the appropriate assembly based on your spindle.

  • Replacement Hub and Spindle For Trailer Using Tapered Spindle With Timken 24780 and 10183 Bearings
    I do have a recommendation for you as we do not carry a hub which will work with your current spindle. Instead you can replace your spindles with the more commonly found #42 Spindle # TRU57FR. This will allow you to easily slide on a hub for a 6 on 5-1/2" Bolt Pattern # AKIHUB-655-6-K or one with the 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern # AKIHUB-865-7-2-K. Both these hubs include pre packed bearings, races and grease seals for easy installation.

  • Will Dexter Trailer Idler Hub # 84545BX Fit TruRyde Spindle # TRU57FR
    Among the keys to determining hub and spindle compatibility is the bearing set used. The Dexter Trailer Idler Hub # 84545BX that you referenced includes inner bearing # L68149 and outer bearing # L44649. The inner diameters of these bearings must match up to the spindle dimensions for them to be compatible. Inner bearing # L68149 has an inner diameter of 1.378-inches. The TruRyde #42 spindle # TRU57FR that you referenced has a diameter at the point where the inner bearing rides of 1.74...

  • Will TruRyde Spindle TRU57FR Fit Dexter Trailer Hub Assembly 42865-KIT
    The TruRyde #42 Spindle # TRU57FR is compatible with the Dexter Trailer Hub Assembly # 42865-KIT. Since the hub uses bearings 25580 and 14125A, whose inner diameters match up to the spindle dimensions, the hub will work on the spindle. Spindles need to be professionally welded on perfectly straight and concentric to ensure you do not have issues with trailer tracking or uneven tire wear.

  • Which Spindle is Compatible with # AKIHUB-865-7-1-K 7000 lb Trailer Hub
    The # TRU37FR EZ Lube or the # TRU57FR standard spindle is compatible with the # AKIHUB-865-7-1-K hub you mentioned. These spindles are compatible with a 5200, 6000 or 7000 lb capacity axle, the axle capacity will depend on the bearing set used. The hub you referenced uses a 25580/14125A bearing set which is good to 7K.

  • Capacity of Trailer Axle Spindles # TRU57FR and # TRU34FR
    The only capacities we have for the two spindles you mentioned is the capacity of them if they are used as they are intended on a trailer axle. The part # TRU34FR is for a 3,000 lb axle so it has a 1,500 lb capacity and the # TRU57FR is intended for a 5,000 lb axle so it has a 2,500 lb capacity.

  • Replacement 7,000LB Trailer Axle Spindle
    I have been unable to locate a spindle that meets the exact specifications that you have on your current spindle. The #42 Spindle # TRU57FR will be the closest that I can find to matching your current spindle. It is 2.25" diameter, rated for 7,000lbs. Overall length is only 11", has a 1.75" inner bearing, 1.25" outer bearing and 1" nut. The spindle includes a new washer, castle nut and cotter pin. The Bearing Kit # BK3-200 contains the correct bearings, races, grease seal and a replacement...

  • Replacement Spindle for Premco Tandem Axle Trailer
    Our main page for trailer spindles is linked for you. Since your tandem axle trailer is rated for 9500-lbs it uses either 5000-lb or 5200-lb axles. For a 5K axle we offer # TRU57FR which uses a grease seal with an inner diameter (ID) of 2.24-inches, an inner bearing ID of 1.74-inches and an outer bearing ID of 1.25-inches. For a 5200-lb axle we have E-Z Lube spindle # TRU37FR which has the same seal and bearing surface dimensions. Please refer to the items' linked pages for a diagram...

  • What Spindle Fits the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub # 8-231-9UC1-EZ?
    The correct spindle that fits the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 8 on 6-1/2 # 8-231-9UC1-EZ is the #42 Spindle for 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb Trailer Axles - 2-1/4" Diameter # TRU57FR. We also have the #42 spindle that comes with a brake flange if you need it. That is the #42 E-Z Lube Spindle w/ Flange for 5.2K to 7K Trailer Axles - 2-1/4" Diameter # TRU37FR.

  • Which Spindle is Used with Trailer Hub Assembly, Part # 42865UC1
    There are two spindle options for the Trailer Hub Assembly, part # 42865-KIT. The spindle used would depend on the capacity of your axle. For a 5000 pound axle, use part # TRU57FR. For a 5200 pound axle, you would use part # TRU37FR. The TRU37FR is an EZ lube spindle with the zerk fitting for adding grease to the bearing assemblies.

  • Replacement Spindle for 7,000 lbs Axle
    We have the #42 E-Z Lube Spindle w/ Flange for 5.2K to 7K Trailer Axles - 2-1/4" Diameter # TRU37FR and the #42 Spindle for 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb Trailer Axles - 2-1/4" Diameter # TRU57FR which are both compatible with 7,000 lb axles. Both will measure 4 inches from the grease seal position to the threads. You can see this in the attached video at the 1:42 second mark. The difference between these is the zerk fitting and the brake flange. The spindle dimensions will be identical.

  • How to Determine Correct Replacement Spindle Based on Measurements
    I can tell you how to determine the correct spindle based on your measurements, and what you will need is a digital caliper, though the first thing you need to know is the weight rating of your trailer axle. From there, what you need to do is measure your spindle to the thousandths of an inch where the bearings and grease seal ride, along with the length and diameter of your stub. For example, the accompanying diagram shows the measurements of the #42 Spindle for 5,200 lb to 7,000 lb Trailer...

  • Replacement Trailer Hubs for Spindle # TRU57FR or Spindle # TRU37FR
    If those measurements are spindle measurements, we do not have an exact match, but the best way to find the correct replacement hubs is to find the inner and outer bearings numbers stamped onto the bearings. With those numbers, finding the correct hubs will be easy. Most of the time, mobile home axles are good for one time use only. The closest spindle we have to the measurements you have provided would either be # TRU57FR or # TRU37FR. For the TRU57FR spindle with a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern,...

  • Number 42 Spindle Recommendation
    We do have a Dexter number 42 spindle. For a standard spindle you would want the part # TRU57FR. For the EZ lube version you would want the part # TRU37FR. This comes with a brake mounting flange. The seal inner diameter needed for this would be 2.24. The bearing dimensions you referenced are correct.

  • Welding #84 Spindles # TRU84FR and # TRU57FR for Utility Trailer with 2-3/8 inch O.D. Pipe
    You have a 2-3/8 inch O.D. pipe so you might want to look at #84 Spindle, # TRU84FR, which has a 2 inch O.D. at the weld point and has a 1750 lb. capacity, so two spindles will give that axle 3,500 lb capacity. The #42 Spindle, TRU57FR which has a 2.25 inch O.D. at the weld point and is rated for 5,200 lbs to 7,000 lbs axles. The total capacities of the spindles are only valid if installed correctly and the axles are not broken or damaged in any way. The TruRyde #84 Spindle, # TRU47FR,...

  • Compatibility of AKHD-655-6-K with TRU57FR # 42 Spindles
    The # TRU57FR spindle and # AKHD-655-6-K hub you mentioned are indeed compatible with each other. If you purchase the # AKHD-655-6-K hub, the 25580 and 15123 bearings, races, GS2250DL grease seal, grease cap, and lug nuts are included, so you wouldn't need to pick up the # BK3-100 bearing kit unless you wanted to have some spare parts on hand.

  • Recommendation For Spindles That Go With Dexter Trailer Idler Hub For 5,200-lb And 6,000-lb Axles
    Yes, we do. For the Dexter Idler Hub Assembly, Item # 8-213-5UC1, you can use spindle, Item # TRU57FR. If you are open to shifting to an EZ-Lube option, you could get a Dexter Idler Hub Assembly, Item # 8-213-5UC1-EZ, and TruRyde EZ Lube Spindle, Item # TRU37FR. Both spindles also work with inner bearings like Item # 25580 and outer bearings like Item # LM67048.

    As long as your spindles are 4.75 inches from seal to threading like # TRU24FR or # TRU57FR they are compatible. I've attached a photo to assist. You will be able to use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3,500 lbs # AKEBRK-35-SA. We do not carry a hub that will fit the bearings you referenced. My recommendation is to change your axle or at least your spindle to allow you to use standard hubs like # AKHD-545-35-K.

  • What Size Spindle is Needed for a M/H trailer
    The axle spindle you need to order will depend on the weight capacity of your trailer and on the type of spindle (see link) already being used, if you only need to replace one spindle. To figure out which spindle is correct you can use the bearing part numbers, both inner and outer, and the shape and length of the spindle stub on your trailer. The bearing numbers will let you cross reference the correct spindle measurements for your hub. The axle stub shape and length will allow you to...
