E-Z Lube-Compatible Assembly for Simple Lubrication
The grease cap on this hub-and-drum assembly is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube 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.
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.)
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.)
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"

trailer hub arrived with something that appears to be sand all throughout the assembly. I'm sure it is obvious what sand will do to bearing

Everything I needed I found at etrailer and everything fit perfectly!! Customer service was excellent!!
by: Christopher05/11/2023
Grease cap damaged/unusable and this like dexter item dimensions are all different. So long as the wheels line up and the drum contacts the brakes pad properly I’ll let it ride. And the like new but missing parts drum is damaged and the bearing race is not seated

Everybody is completely smashed to pieces. I bought a kit for my store but can not put smashed torn apart boxes on the shelf. Why were these shipped in the box that is to be put on the shelf? Adhesive shipping labels veering descriptions and part quantities.

I am sorry that the hub assemblies were delivered this way. I will share this with our shipping department and will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.
by: Christopher C.07/14/2017
Thanks so much etrailer for making me feel so much better/safer about carrying heavier loads in my trailer. Katrina also went the extra mile when it came to customer service and patience with my order. I had 15" six lug hub and drum assembly which held all I could load on them, like I said I just did not feel safe so I went with this hub and drum assembly which came with all necessary items for the install, and it allowed me to put 16" tires with a heavier weight rating. Very pleased.

Outer bearing #14125A was damaged. Notified Davine at etrailer and emailed her a picture of the damaged bearing. Currently awaiting a response. Everything else in the package was ok.

So far so good. Good customer service, boxes were not damaged and arrived within a couple days. Genuine dexter parts and they also helped swapped a backordered part.

Parts are good. Service sucks! When I ordered and paid for four of these they were in stock and was to be at my door in three days. Four days later they said they were out of stock and would take another two weeks before they would have them in. Don't order unless you have about three weeks!

Great product and exact replacement for our 42ft Keystone Montana High Country 375FL.
Fast shipping and correct part is extremely important as we are full time RVers and with limited time.
I've ordered several items over the years and always received great service.

Perfect replacement for the factor hubs. Thought I ordered the easy grease hub. A pre-greased one was shipped...NO PROBLEM!!! One less thing I had to do to install. Etrailer will continue to have my business.

SECOND TIME IVE ORDER A HUB ASSEMBLY FOR MY JOB CAME IN EARILER THAN EXPECT & PACKEGED NICELY & EVERYTHING WAS CORRECT!!!!
by: Andrew V.02/15/2019
I ordered this as spare hub assembly for my 5th Wheel RV. We are leaving next month on a 5000+ mile, 3 month trip. I figure if I have a bearing go bad I can swap out the whole hub and be back on the road in no time. The hub is the same Dexter hub that I have on my rig now.
Shipping was fast and free, Helen was great, helping me find the part numbers of some of the other accessories that I needed to have spares of. Speaking of shipping I had checked other places for the hub and while the price was similar the freight charges were half the price of the hub. I will definitely be giving trailer my business going forward.

Matched OEM perfectly
by: Al03/28/2014
This is exactly what I need for an on-the-road repair! I ordered a second because I had a wheel-lug issue on I-95, and this kit got me rolling again! Thanks for offering a very complete setup at a great price. Finally, the free shipping is EXCELLENT! With some vendors "free shipping" means "you will receive it sometime next year." Not etrailer.com! Thanks!

- Compatibility Of Dexter 6,000LB Hub And Drum Assemblies On etrailer AxleTek 7,000LB AxlesTo verify if your hubs on your 6,000lb Dexter axles are going to fit the etrailer AxleTek 7,000LB Axle # e35GR you will need to verify what bearings and grease seals are used on your hubs. The new axles will use a #42 Spindle # TRU57FR, and this is the most common spindle used on the Dexter 6,000lb axles. The etrailer AxleTek uses Inner Bearing # 25580(ID 1.750"), Outer Bearing # 14125A(ID 1.250") and Grease Seal # GS-2250DL(ID 2.250", OD 3.376"). The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly...

- Option to Replace 7k Axle on Brimar TrailerWe have an option to replace your 7,000 lb axle but it would be with an axle-less suspension system as opposed to a traditional thru-axle, because as you mentioned we don't have an axle with those specifications. The system is called a Timbren Axle-Less and the part number for a 7k axle is the following: - Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System - Spindle w/ Brake Flange # TASR7KS01 The Timbren Axle-Less system is really an upgrade because they give you an improved ride compared to...

For a kit that has both the left and right hand side you'll want the part # 23-105-106-09. Then for a hub kit that includes all of the needed bearings/seals etc. you'd want the part # 42866UC3-EZ if the seal diameter on your spindle is 2-1/4 inch. If instead the dimension is 2-1/8 inch you'd want the part # 8-219-4UC3-EZ which has the correct seal.

Since you have a 6,000 lb axle we can narrow down the parts. However, you will still need to identify your grease seal. Unfortunately, the serial number won't help in this case since Axis Products, Inc. was sold in 2015 so no information is available. For brakes you can use the # AKEBRK-7-SA if you need electric brakes or the # AKFBBRK-7 for hydraulic brakes.

If so, you can upgrade by using the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System # TASR7KS01 which has a capacity of 7,000 lbs and will replace your traditional axle. These suspension units can be bolted or welded to your trailer, though if you do not have a crossmember above the area you are going to install the Timbren, you might...

You have a couple of options to choose from but the 3,500lb Dexter hub and drum will not work with the Timbren because the heavy duty spindles of the Timbren will not fit the bearings of the Dexter hub. The Timbrens are meant for larger hubs and larger wheels. There aren't any hubs with...

Trailer hubs with capacities in this range like the # 8-201-9UC3-EZ will either have 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt patterns or 8 on 6-1/2 inch bolt patterns like the # 42866UC3-EZ.

To determine which is compatible with your existing spindle, you will need to use a digital or dial caliper to measure the surface of the spindle that the grease seal rides against (see diagram).
