Video Transcript for Review of TruRyde Replacement Tang Type Spindle Washer E-Z Lube - 5-101

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this replacement Tang Type Spindle Washer for E-Z Lube. Now this spindle washer has a thickness of 1/32 of an inch with an inner diameter of 1 inch. And let me go ahead and just get my ruler here real quick to confirm that inner diameter for you. Hopefully, my camera will stay in focus there. So as you can see, we're sitting right at 1 inch.

And as you probably know, when you install this, you are going to bend one of these two tangs up into a slot for your castle nut, and that's what holds your castle nut in place and it keeps it from backing off. Well, that's gonna wrap up our real quick look today. I do hope the information was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

These replacement spindle washer were the correct size and worked perfect.



by:

Perfect replacement



by:

Exactly what I needed for my trailer



by:

I purchased 2 galvanized wheels and 2 galvanized hubs. The box they shipped the items in was sealed well with staples and was robust, but the items weren't separate well at all. Whomever packaged the order placed a few pieces of packing paper inside. All the items were tossed around and dinged up. The threaded wheel lugs on the hub were dented and needed to be filed and thread chased. Other than that, the products seem nice, but time will tell.



by:

Work as expected..



by:

Good product fast shipping



by:

Please see the attached picture of the broken parts I found when inspecting the wheel bearing on my boat trailer.
I was unaware of the tang wheel bearing washer assembly until I visited your website and watched the installation video.
I had never seen any other method than the cotter pin assembly to retain the bearing on the axle.
I was glad to see the the actual way the washer was manufactured. It didn't seem right that the small tab alone cold retain the bearing.
Thank you for the video and the prompt delivery of the needed parts.



by:

All of the parts I ordered arrived together and nothing was damaged, so that’s a plus. Ordering the seal puller and 7 piece installation set was definitely a good investment, because it definitely made everything that much easier to install!



by:

Received the right parts on time. Thank you.



by:

worked great



by:

All products were shipped quickly, packaged well and all fit as expected



by:

All great, as usual



by:

After being in storage, in a field, for more than 2 years, Water had contaminated the original hub, pitting the bearings and races and they had not been serviced since, at least 1999. I polished up the EZ lube spindles, flushed out the old grease and I was ready. Everything fit perfectly. It was aa perfect match. Used new Nuts and Washers. re-installed the Wheels and Tires, Torqued to 90-10lb. The old 6 x 4 Wells Cargo trailer is once again Ready for the coming rendezvous season.



by:

When replacing the wheel bearings there was no cotter key like most trailers have . Broke off the tab on the washer and contacted E Trailer and the had the right part . Ordered the part and it was delivered right away . Excellent communication via the email . Followed up after the parts were delivered . Also had a video on how to install . Wish I would have watched that video before I broke off the tab on the original washers !!!!!



by:

Exactly as described fast shipping to Canada will buy again



by:

Perfect! Couldn't find these locally. I have an "old school" boat trailer that needed some repair.



by:

When repacking the bearings on my trailer, the lock rings were damaged. Unable to find them locally, I checked etrailer and there they were! I submitted my order, which was received in record time, and with the correct item. I do a fair amount of ordering online, and etrailer sets the standard in my opinion. Communication and follow-up from etrailer is excellent. Have recommended etrailer to my friends, and will continue to do so. A+++++!!!!!

Very happy. My parts requirement was very small, but not available around here. Although this part doesnt generally wear in normal use, it has done the exact job so far, and the service/shipping were extraordinary. Next time I need trailer parts, etrailer.com will be where I go!



by:

An odd, yet necessary, item when doing bearings on a boat trailer (it locks the castle nut in place). I live in an "inland" area and while local bearing providers stocked the bearings, they didn't stock the lock washer. Fortunately etrailer did and they were inexpensive and promptly shipped.

The product is one of those place and forget things. Having been installed, it has never given me any problems which is the nature of such place and forget things. So, still pleased.



by:

These tanged washer were replacements for my camper trailer hubs. I wanted to place new tang washers on my spindles because the old ones had be removed and reinstalled several times. Didn't want to take a chance of tab breaking off on the road.

My wheels are still on the camper and we have traveled more than 7,000 miles since.



by:

Perfect fit. My trailer was borrowed and came back with a replaced hub - while servicing the hubs I noticed that the replaced hub did not have one of these installed. Scary. Ordered one from Etrailer and had it a few days later, shipping was cheaper than running all over town trying to run this part down.

Thanks for taking the time to follow up with me. Ive only put a few hundred miles of use on the trailer but everything is working great. Ive actually recommended etrailer to my father, a friend of mine and anyone at work who would listen made easier by the fact that I had everything I ordered shipped to my job instead of home. Barring an emergency situation that requires an immediate solution you have my business in the future.



by:

I bought this for a spare as prefer the other style of retainer. I can not find this locally and like to keep an extra set of bearings & retainer on hand, just in case.



by:

Part fit as designed.

  • Replacement Spindle Washer Recommendation for a Trailer Spindle
    Sounds like you have a 1 inch diameter spindle and would need the part # SW1000 as this washer has an inner diameter of 1 inch. There is no specific torque rating for the castle nut that holds your hub in place. We recommend tightening the castle nut down until it stops, and then backing it off slightly. Having it too tight would prevent the hub from spinning.

  • Replacement Washer and Nut for EZ Lube Spindle on Escort Boat Trailer
    The Replacement Spindle Washer - Tang Type for E-Z Lube # 5-101 is the correct fit for your trailer spindle based on the picture and measurement if you want to use a castle nut like # 165686. The alternative option is the Spindle Nut Kit for EZ Lube Axles # RG05-100 which uses a different style retainer for the nut. Either options will work well for you. You may also want the zerk fitting # GZERK to replace the fitting on your spindle which is a confirmed fit since Dexter uses the standard...

  • Does the Kodiak 10 Inch Hub and Rotor Assembly Come with Bearings and Seals
    We do have the parts you're needing, but the Kodiak 10" Hub-and-Rotor Assembly - 5 on 4-1/2 - Dacromet - 3,500 lbs # KHR10D only comes with the races included; the bearings, grease seals and caps are not included and must be purchased separately. You can use the Bearing Kit for #84 Spindle, L44649/L68149 Bearings, 10-19 Double Lip Seal # BK2-100 which will give you the bearings to fit in these hubs and also includes the tang washer and cotter pin.

  • How to Pick Out Spindle Washer for Trailer Hub
    The correct spindle washer you would need is going to depend on what the spindle calls for. There are various washers we offer for various styles of spindles. For just a standard 1 inch washer we have the # SW1000. Of if you have an EZ lube style spindle we have the part # 5-101 which is the most popular option. I attached a link to a page that has all of the washers we have. The part # DL21792 comes with a cotter pin, but no washer.

  • Adding Electric Brakes to 1995 StarCraft Pop-Up Trailer
    You could try pulling the other hub, to see if you can read the bearing on the other side. If your inner bearing is L68149, there's a good chance the outer is a L44649, but you can confirm that by using a digital caliper like part # PTW80157 to measure the inside diameter of the bearing. If it's 1.063 inches, you've confirmed it to be an L44649. If that's the case, and your wheel bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2, the # AKHD-545-35-K hub/drum would be a good choice. The self adjusting # AKEBRK-35L-SA...

  • How to Find the Correct Idler Hub Replacement for Boat Trailer
    In order to find the correct wheel bearings, you can take apart your hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the grease and you should be able to see the part number stamped directly on them. If you are unable to find them, you would need to use a digital caliper such as # PTW80157 and measure your spindle to the thousandths of an inch where the bearings ride. You can use the photo I've attached to see exactly where you need to measure. I've also added a link to a help...

  • Spindle Nut Washer and Grease Seal for a Dexter 3500 Pound E-Z Lube Trailer Axle
    The Replacement Spindle Washer, # 5-101, was designed specifically for E-Z Lube axles, so that should be the correct washer for you. You can make sure that your spindle has a 1 inch diameter at the end where the washer will be. It sounds like you have a #84 spindle which is for 3500 pound E-Z lube axles. The correct seal would be # RG06-050, for a pair of double lip seals. To be sure, you would need to find the bearing numbers of the inner and outer bearings. The numbers are stamped into...

  • Should There Be a Washer on Trailer Spindle Between Spindle Nut and Outer Bearing
    There really should be a flat washer between the outer bearing of your hub and the nut that holds it on. The washer protects the back side of the bearing from the edges and points on the back side of the spindle nut. The Washer For 1 inch Spindle, # SW1000, is typically used on spindles that have a castle nut, like # 165686, and a cotter pin, # 165649. A D washer, # 5-23, would be used on a spindle that has a flat side and uses the same castle nut and cotter pin setup. A Tongue Washer,...

If you can't read the reference number of your outer inner bearing, you can always use a digital caliper to measure the diameter of the spindle where that bearing rides.
