E-Z Lube-Compatible Hub 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"

I upgraded my set up from Hydraulic to electric and required the new drum/hub assemblies. Nice kit.
by: Justin 03/18/2023
Perfect fit for my Dexter Model 48424 axle. Assembly was straight forward.
Appears to be a good fit with the AKEBRK-2 break kit. Still have to do a test drive and confirm breaking operation. If that goes as expected this could be 5 stars.
by: Louise G05/27/2017
Needed electric brakes on my Scamper pop up camper 1997, to tow with my Subaru (needs brakes over 1 000 lbs). These fit perfectly. Easy to install and a breeze when you drive.
by: Marc-Andre07/13/2022
Not even 2 years after install all rusty. Electric brake pin broke due to rust.
Impossible To remove 4 bolt holding connector due To rust. I do not recommend
by: Wilstyx11/23/2020
Well after receiving 2 different hubs and unfortunately of course installed the correct one first about 45 minutes or less. Perfect fit and finish. etrailer took care of the wrong hub and when i received it took around 30 minutes to install that side. If you have general knowledge and just a bit of mechanic skill you can do it. Added brakes to my 2008 pop up camper, have driven this over 8000 miles (or more) now and has worked flawlessly. Highly recommend.
by: James 06/30/2021
Essentially plug and play for my previous hubs. Great quality and fit. Would purchase again.

Still going strong. No regrets. Would purchase again.

New hubs were shipped immediately after ordering and arrived the next day. They fit my 2004 Viking Epic 1706 perfectly. I was able to change them out in about one hour and get on the road to Florida. I re-torqued the lug nuts and checked the hub temperature at every gas fill up and they never got warmer than the tires. Drove 1000 miles in two days with no issues. Thank you etrailer for quality parts at great prices and excellent customer service.
by: J Texas10/02/2013
I purchased a pair of these to replace the hubs on my 2001 Jayco popup camper w/Dexter axle. They arrived quickly and included everything but the grease. The races are already installed, which is great. These are EZ lube hubs, but the only difference I could see is the EZ lube dust cap and a different hub seal. I installed these on non-EZ lube spindles and used the bearing buddies I already had. eTrailer was great in addressing the one question I had, the price was great, and I got free shipping with my order over $150.
by: Tony05/26/2016
This is a great product for a great price. Perfect fit and easy assembly for the inexperienced. I put 5000 miles on this set immediately after install and it worked flawless with brake control.
Highly recommend etrailer products and great service.

Worked great and went on very easy. Feels a lot better to tow a trailer with brakes!!

Fairly priced and it came one day sooner than expected. Very satisfied with the service so far. I’ll post an update when I get to try the parts I purchased.
Thank you ETRAILER!

Great quality dexter product. Was a quick and easy replacement for the worn drum on my tent trailer with a 3000lb dexter axle.

Ive had these brakes for a year now. I am still pleased with them. Although I did have trouble with the Drivers side unit at first. I could not eliminate a squeak when applying the brakes. eTrailer worked with me to resolve the problem. They sent me a total one side replacement. I recently completed a 300 miles trip with the camper and the brakes worked perfectly. No more squeak.
by: Edward 06/27/2021
Good product. I installed on my 2009 Jayco 1007 pop up and they worked. Always a plus. Received in about a week.

See what our Experts say about this Dexter Trailer Hubs and Drums
- How To Add Brakes to Dexter Torlfex #9 2,200 Lb AxleIf the Dexter Torlfex #9 2,200 Lb Axle has a brake mounting flange welded on then you can install brakes using the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-173-16UC3-EZ and Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # 23-47-48 which are designed for E-Z Lube applications.
view full answer... - Availability Of a 2,000LB Trailer Axle With 66-1/2" Hub Face and Electric Trailer BrakesWhile we do not have a axle which fits your exact dimensions we do have the BTR E-Z Lube Spindle w/ Brake Flange # TRU27FR. With 2 of these you can have an axle welded up with 2 Spring Seats # TRSS175 in the dimensions you are needing. Then you will be able to attach the Brakes # AKEBRK-2 and Hub/Drums # 8-173-16UC3-EZ.
view full answer... - 2,200 lb Axle Measuring 72 Inches Between Hub Face, Brake Flange, Hub, and Electric BrakesWe do have all the parts you need, though the axles with that size don't come with the brake flange mounted, so you will need to have them welded on. Also, there isn't a hub with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern that will fit this spindle though, only a 4 on 4" bolt pattern. So for the 2,200 lb axle that measures 72" hub face to hub face & spring seat to spring seat, brake mounting flange, hubs, and electric brakes, these are the exact parts you need. - Dexter Trailer Idler Axle Beam with EZ-Lube...
view full answer... - Availability of Trailer Hub with 4 on 5 inch Bolt PatternIf you do indeed have a 4 on 5 inch bolt pattern we have one hub that matches that. For that you would need the part # AH15450ECOMP. There is a better chance that you have a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern as that is the most common 4 bolt mounting pattern. I attached a help article on determining bolt patterns as well. You should also note that when picking out a hub for an axle you have to make sure you pick one that will fit the spindle. To do this you need to measure the spindle where the...

- Recommended Parts To Add Electric Trailer Brakes To Pop Up Camper With 2000lbs AxleThank you for all the details on your axle and bearings! Your list of parts is dead on. The Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit w/ Parking Brakes # K23-103-104-00 is a great option if you are looking to add a parking brake. If you aren't planning on adding a parking brake you can use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2. The Dexter # K23-103-104-00 comes with the required hardware, but the Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2 will require the Mounting Hardware # BRKH7 or two of the...
view full answer... - Comparing 1,200 Lb Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension SystemsThe only difference between the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System part # ASR1200S04 and part # ASR1200S02 is that the former has brake flanges so you can install brakes if needed. I have attached options for each setup below. ASR1200S04 - Dexter Hub/Drum part # 8-173-16UC3-EZ - Dexter Trailer Brakes part # 23-47-48 ASR1200S02 - Dexter Idler Hub part # 8-91-05UC1-EZ
view full answer... - 7 inch Trailer Brake Assembly Recommendation for Trailer with Parking BrakesThe 7 inch brake assemblies part # K23-103-00 and # K23-104-00 are parking brake compatible. For hub/drums that fit these assemblies you would then want the part # 8-173-16UC3-EZ. These are designed for 2,200 lb axle spindles.
view full answer... - Electric Brake Assemblies and Hub and Drum for Snowmobile Trailer with 7x1-1/4 Inch BrakesFor Dexter 7 x 1-1/4 inch electric trailer brakes you will use # 23-47 for the drivers side and # 23-48 for a passenger side assembly. For a hub and drum assembly, you may need # 8-173-16UC3-EZ. This has a 4 on 4 bolt pattern and is designed for use with the brakes listed above. It takes inner and outer bearing L44649 and a 10-60 grease seal (included). If the bearing numbers or wheel bolt pattern is different on your existing hub/drums let me know and I can determine if there is something...
view full answer... - Dexter Torflex #9 1000-2200 lbs Axle Hub and Bearing Kit ReplacementsThe current hub for your Torflex #9 axle uses the inner and outer bearings # L44649 with a grease seal that has a 1.500" inner diameter. You can find the bearing kit as part # BK1-150 on our site. For a replacement hub we have the part # 8-91-05UC1 for a standard spindle or part # 8-91-05UC1-EZ for E-Z Lube spindles. If you have brakes then you would want part # 8-173-16UC3 for a standard spindle or part # 8-173-16UC3-EZ for E-Z Lube spindles. All of these hub kits come with bearings and...
view full answer... - Can Electric Brakes Be Added to Dexter 2,200lb Capacity Idler AxleBrake mounting flanges like part # 4-34 could be welded to the axle you referenced. The spindles are compatible with the L44649 wheel bearings. If you needed a hub with a 4 on 4 bolt pattern, use the # 8-173-16UC3-EZ hub drum and the # 23-47 and # 23-48 brake assemblies. You'd also need 4 nuts # 6-17 and # 5-8 lock washers per brake assembly. If you needed a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern, go with the # 8-257-5UC3-EZ hub drum along with the brake assemblies and hardware mentioned above.
view full answer... - Brake Drum for a Reliable 2,700 Pound Trailer AxleIf the spindles on your Reliable 2,700 pound axle are straight (same diameter in both bearing locations) then that indicates that it uses L44649 inner and outer bearings but if the spindles are tapered (inner bearing surface diameter is larger than the outer bearing surface diameter) then it will use L68111 for the inner bearing and L44649 for the outer. If you pull a hub off and find that both bearings are L44649 you can use # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K if there are grease fittings at the ends...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Add Electric Drum Brakes to Pop-Up Travel TrailerIf your Safari already has a brake controller and functional 7-way socket, and your trailer already has brake flanges and 7-way wiring, then to add electric drum brakes you will need the left- and right-hand brake assemblies, hardware to mount them (# BIK-00), compatible hub/drum assemblies, a breakaway kit and wiring to connect the brakes to your trailer. The linked article on adding electric drum brakes to a trailer may interest you. It covers everything needed. Brakes should be selected...
view full answer... - Replacement Hub Options For a Spindle With 1-1/4 Inner Bearing and 7/8 Outer BearingI have a recommendation as we do not have any hubs that will use the bearing combination you have. I recommend replacing your spindles with the BTR E-Z Lube Spindle # TRU27FR. This will upgrade you to a more commonly found spindle size that use the same Inner and Outer Bearing # L44649. You will be able to use the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-2K. Since the spindle and hub are easy lube you will be able to fill the hub with Grease # L11465 and a Grease Gun # L30416....
view full answer... - Recommended Replacement Brake Assemblies for Viking 2107 ST Pop-Up CamperThe American-Made Dexter # K23-103-104-00 brake assemblies would be absolutely the correct application for your Viking Pop-Up. The brake assemblies are compatible with 12 inch wheels used by your 145R80 tires. The installation is pretty easy if you're moderately handy. The video I've linked for you will provide an overview of what's involved. The video shows a larger brake assembly being installed, but the procedure for a 7 inch assembly would be pretty similar. Really the only difference...
view full answer... - Recommended Hubs and Electric Brakes for 2015 Jayco Sport 10SDYou are absolutely on the right path! I was able to contact Jayco and confirm that your 2015 Jayco Sport 10SD came from the factory with a 2,200 pound Dexter EZ Lube axle. With this in mind, the Dexter E-Z Lube Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-173-16UC3-EZ is the correct hub and drum for the trailer. It features the 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern you are needing along with the E-Z Lube grease cap with plug and seal to allow for easy bearing maintenance. Since you will be changing out the hubs...
view full answer... - Recommended Lug Nut Torque Specs for Trailer Hub and Drum AssemblyWhen installing the lug nuts on the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-173-16UC3-EZ you should follow lug nut torque specs and not lug bolt torque specs. For this assembly you will want to torque the lug nuts between 75 and 85 foot lbs according to the attached spec sheet. You will also want to use the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly - 7" - Left Hand # 23-47 and Right Hand # 23-48. Along with these, I recommend the 7-Way Molded Trailer Plug with Junction Box # HS381-9000 and ring...

- Electric Brake Kit For Two 2,200 lb Axles On Aluma TrailerSince you have two 2,200 lb trailer brakes you should get two of the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kits # K23-103-104-00. These are good for 10", 12" and 13" wheels. This kit requires a mounting flange bolt pattern of 4" x 4" and are 7 x 1-1/4 drum brakes. A 4" x 4" E-Z Lube Axle # 8-173-16UC3-EZ or standard axle hub # 8-173-16UC3 will work but make sure that your hubs use the # L44649 inner and outer bearing to make sure these hubs are correct for your Aluma Trailer. All the hardware is...
view full answer... - Correct 7 inch Electric Drum Brake Assemblies and Hub and Drums for Little Guy Silver Shadow TrailerThe Dexter brake assemblies, part # K23-103-104-00, are for 10 to 13 inch rims. They're designed for 2,200 pound axles that have a 7 by 1-1/4 inch drum. The hubs for a 2,200 pound axle that we carry have a 4 on 4 bolt pattern; parts # 8-173-16UC3-EZ for E-Z lube axles and # 8-173-16UC3 for standard axles. You need to verify that your Little Guy Silver Shadow uses bearings # L44649 for both the inner and outer to confirm the hubs are correct.
view full answer... - How To Determine Axle Capacity of Trailer with 4 Lug Hubs with BrakesThe only way to know for sure is to check your bearings. That being said, the most common 4-bolt configuration is a 4 on 4 bolt pattern, which are typically found on 2,000 lb to 2,700 lb trailer axles. The only 4 on 4 bolt pattern hub and drum assemblies we carry are for 2,200 lb axles and use # L44649 inner/outer bearings. See below.

- Parts Needed to Swap Hydraulic Brakes to Electric Brakes on a 1998 Jayco Eagle 12 UDKWe can definitely get you the parts needed to swap over to electric brakes, but the 2,500 pound hydraulic brakes will end up being a different size than their electric counterparts. With that being said, the etrailer.com Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 7" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies # AKEBRK-2 will technically only be rated to 2,000 pounds, but the 4 bolt pattern on the backing plate will bolt directly to your axle. From what I could find, your 1998 Jayco Eagle 12 UDK came from the manufacturer...
view full answer... - 7 inch Trailer Hub and Drum with 4 Lug Bolt Pattern and Brake AssembliesFor a 4 lug hub/drum that has a 7 inch diameter drum we have the 2,200 lb axle hub/drum # 8-173-16UC3-EZ and then for a matching brake assemblies you'd want # 23-47 and # 23-48.
view full answer... - Replacement Hub and Drum Recommendation for a Dexter 2k AxleSounds like you have a 2,000 lb Dexter Axle like the part # T20BTR-6048 which take inner and outer bearings L44649 and would use the part # 8-257-5UC3-EZ for a hub/drum that has a 5 bolt pattern or part # 8-173-16UC3-EZ for a 4 bolt mounting flange. For brake assemblies you would want the # 23-48 for the right hand side and part # 23-47. Before you order any parts you would want to pull a hub from your trailer to verify that both bearing numbers are L44649.
view full answer... - Adding 7 Inch Electric Trailer Brakes to Trailer With Idler HubsIf your existing hubs use a L44649 bearing with an ID of 1.063, we have a solution for you. You'll want to measure the ID of your existing bearings to confirm. A digital caliper like # PTW80157 is an easy way to get an accurate measurement of your bearing's inner diameter. If your existing hubs use the L44649 bearings, you can use the Dexter # 8-173-16UC3 which is compatible with a standard spindle or # 8-173-16UC3-EZ compatible with an EZ lube spindle. For a brake assembly, use # 23-47...
view full answer... - 4-on-4 Bolt Pattern Hub/Drum for Use on 2K-Rated AxleMatching up new hub/drum assemblies to your Dexter P-11 axle just requires matching up the bearings used in the original hubs and confirming the axle weight rating. New hubs have to use the same bearings in order to fit on your spindles and your new pair of hubs need to be rated for the capacity of your axle. Usually a plate or sticker on the axle itself (or the trailer) will tell you this. I see that you selected 7-inch brake assemblies for a 2K axle. For 4-bolt hub/drums you can use...
