  • Diameter of Hole Where Grease Cap Sits on 6K Dexter Trailer Idler Hub With 6 on 6 Bolt Pattern
  • The diameter of the pilot hole - where the grease cap will be - of the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 6,000-lb Axles - 6 on 6 - Agricultural # 42660UC1 is 2.446 inches. The correct grease cap to use with this hub is Grease Cap # F001520. This hub does not come with bearings, races, grease seal or cap so you will also need Bearing Kit # BK3-300. This kit has all the correct bearings, races and seal for this hub. I have added links to video reviews for you to check out as well.

  • Bearings, Races, and Seal for Older Boat Trailer with Seal Dimension 1.2 inch
  • It's odd for sure what you mentioned but to be sure about the seal we'd also need to know the diameter on the hub where the seal installs to be sure we have a fit for it since what you have seems to be non-standard. If that measurement is 1.983 inch then the seals part # RG06-010 is what you'd need with the bearings part # L44649 and race # L44610 if those were needed as well. If you find a different dimension let me know.
