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.


Bolt Pattern - Even

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.)


Bolt Pattern - Odd

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.)


Bolt Pattern - Side

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 wish it came with a new axle nut and washer, but i was able to use my originals so no big deal. good product, fit perfect

We do have the spindle nut for the one inch spindle as separate part, part # 165686. The matching washer would be part # SW1000.



by:

Everything fit perfect but I have never been able to adjust the brakes so they actually work.



by:

The parts were all the right ones and most were Dexter oem parts. The only problem I had was putting the bolts in the frame end of the spring perch. It was easier to take the spring loose from the axle, put the bolt in ,then bolt it back to the axle. I intend to buy all of my future trailer parts from etrailer.



by:

Etrailer makes shopping for easy, great pictures and descriptions make it easy to find the right part. This drum was an exact fit for our Dexter brake system on an older tri-axle. We replaced all 6 and they look and fit as the original.

Received quick and what we ordered

It was exactly what I needed. Easy to find on the internet, easy to order. The price was good and the shipping was quick and free. Thank you.

They are a perfect replacement for the 2x12 dexter utility. You are better off going with these rather than the cheaper ones.

  • What Bolts are Needed to Mount Dexstar Vintage Trailer Wheel # AM20395
    The Dexstar Vintage Wheel you mentioned, part # AM20395 is typically lug-centric, which means that it would mount to a hub that has wheel studs and would use lug nuts, not lug bolts. The wheel usually goes on a hub like part # 8-174-5UC3, which also uses clamps to join the hub to the rim. If for some reason your existing hubs use lug bolts, you'd need to determine the length and diameter of the bolt needed as well as the thread pitch of the bolt. Since in my experience, these hubs usually...

  • Are There Different Size Wheel Clamps # 15-2
    We only carry the Redline Wheel Rim Clamp # 15-2 which is specifically made for the Dexter Axle Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-174-5UC3. I suppose if you have different hub and drum assemblies then it is possible that they would use different clamps but that would depend on their design. Do your axles have the same weight rating or are they completely different? If this is the case then you really need to change them out so that they match. If they are different weight ratings then that means...

  • How to Measure Hub Face of Mobile Home Hub and Drum
    By "mobile home type bolt pattern" I believe you are talking about a 5 spoke utility bolt pattern such as what is on the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 6,000-lb and 7,000-lb Axles # 8-174-5UC3. To measure your axle from hub face to hub face with this (or any other axle) you will measure from the base of the hub on one wheel stud to the base of the wheel stud on the opposite hub.

  • Hydraulic Trailer Brake Assemblies Compatible with the Dexter 8-174-5UC3 Hub Drum Assemblies
    The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 6,000-lb and 7,000-lb Axles - 12" - 5 Spoke Utility # 8-174-5UC3 is compatible with either the Dexter Hydraulic Drum Brake Kit - Duo Servo - 12" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 7,000 lbs # 23-336-337 or the free backing Uno Servo # 23-342-343. The Duo Servo option will give you the best braking capacity with those hubs so that is my recommendation.

  • Replacement 5 Spoke Utility Hub for Home Built Trailer
    The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-174-5UC3 referenced in your question uses the same inner bearing # 25580 as your existing hub assembly but a slightly different outer bearing # 15123. With that being said, this particular outer bearing has the same 1.25 inch inner diameter as the # LM67048 that your current hub uses, so this hub will still fit the spindle on your trailer. This Dexter Hub also uses the same 10-10 grease seal, so this hub will work great and there should be no...

  • Hub Size and Axle Weight Rating to Fit Bearings 25580 and LM67048
    Based on the bearing sizes # 25580 and # LM67048, there are two possible hubs that will fit. The first has a wheel bolt pattern of 6 on 5-1/2 and fits axles rated for 5,200 lbs to 6,000 lbs. This hub can be purchased with the standard hub assembly # 8-213-5UC1 or the E-Z Lube axle hub assembly # 8-213-5UC1-EZ. Your bearing combination indicates that your axle capacity is 5,200 lbs. The other hub option has a bolt pattern of 6 on 6 and fits axles rated for 6,000 lbs. This hub can be...

  • Will Brakes For A Dexter 8-174-5UC3 Hub Also Work In A 8-201-9UC3-EZ Hub
    The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-201-9UC3-EZ will actually be a great replacement if you are wanting to swap out your current # 8-174-5UC3 drums. Not only do these use the exact same inner and outer bearings, they also accept the same 12" x 2" brake assemblies, like the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust # 23-464-465. The 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern will also be a lot easier to match wheels to, and if you have not looked at an as of yet, I can recommend checking out the Kenda Karrier ST225/75R15...

  • Would the Hub and Drum # 8-174-5UC3 Fit My Mobile Home Axle
    Typically mobile home axles use spindles that are very hard to fit hub/drums to because they are designed for one time use. To determine if the # 8-174-5UC3 would fit you would need to remove your current hubs and get some exact measurement of the spindle. Where the seal rides needs to be 2-1/8 or 2-1/4 inches in diameter. Where the inner bearing rides needs to be 1.750 inches and where the outer bearing rides needs to be 1.25 inches. If all of these measurements check out the # 8-174-5UC3...

  • Replacement Brake Hub and Drum For Dexter 8-174 With Traditional Bolt Pattern
    The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 6,000-lb and 7,000-lb Axles - 12" - 5 Spoke Utility # 8-174-5UC3 is the direct replacement hub. We don't have any wheels that are a fit for this utility bolt pattern. My recommendation for you is to use the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum for 5,200-lb and 6,000-lb Axles - 12" Diameter - 6 on 5-1/2 # AKHD-655-6-K which will fit your spindles perfectly as well as your brake assemblies. Then you can use any 15 or 16 inch wheels with the matching...

  • What is the Torque Value for Hex Nut for use with 15-2 Rim Clamps # 916N
    I spoke with our resident tire and wheel expert who says that nut # 916N for utility hubs like # 8-174-5UC3 should be torqued to 85 to 95 foot pounds.

  • Replacement Rim Clamps and Wheel Bolts for 5 Spoke Utility Hub
    By 'blocks', I'm assuming you're speaking of rim clamps, which we sell individually as part # 15-2. The 5 spoke utility rims we offer, part # 8-174-5UC3 use wheel studs, not bolts. To determine if we carry a wheel bolt that would work for you, I'd need to know the diameter, whether the existing bolts use a fine or a coarse thread and the length of the wheel bolts currently used with your hubs. I've linked you to our selection of wheel bolts, you can compare your bolts to these or simply...

  • What Wheels Work with the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly 8-174-5UC3
    The Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-174-5UC3 is designed for use with old centerless wheels which we don't currently offer. The only option we can offer would be to use the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-201-9UC3-EZ instead which are designed for standard wheels with a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern like the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Tire with 15" White Spoke Wheel part # AM32680 for example.

  • Availability of 7k Leaf Spring and 5 Spoke Utility Hub for Dexter 7.2k Axle
    We have leaf springs that will work for you, the PR6 is a 24-7/8 inch 7k rated double eye leaf spring. Then for a hanger kit that comes with equalizers, hangers and hardware you would want the part # APT5. The hub you mentioned is our part # 8-174-5UC3. This comes with bearings. For easy lube caps though you would need the part # RG04-080. I wish we had the axles you are looking for, but we only carry a select few axles at this time and none of them have the dimension/capacity that you...

  • Replacement Bearings and Hubs for Hudson Tandem Trailer
    The easiest way to find replacement bearings and a compatible replacement hub is to locate the original bearing part numbers. The linked photo shows the typical location and appearance of these part numbers. If you cannot find part numbers you can measure your spindle to three decimal places (such as 1.234) using a precision caliper like # PTW80157. If you find your bearing numbers you can simply search our site using those numbers. If you have dimensions you can use the linked page which...

  • Type and Size of Wheel Studs Used on Dexter Hub/Drum # 8-174-5UC3
    The Dexter Hub/ Drum Assembly you referenced, part # 8-174-5UC3 uses 9/16 x 3 screw-in wheel studs, like part # 25-11. We do not offer a 1/2 x 3 screw-in wheel stud, nor do our suppliers offer one. To remove the wheel studs, you would use two lug nuts jammed together, like a reverse of the procedure shown in the video I will link you to.

  • Replacement Axle, Brake Assemblies, And Hubs And Drums For M1101 Trailer
    Based on my research your M1101 trailer has a GVWR of around 3400lbs, so for a replacement axle I recommend taking a look at the Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - Straight Spindle - Off-Road Tires - 3,500 lbs # ASR35HDS01 which will bolt to the frame of your trailer and replace your current axle and suspension setup. The # ASR35HDS01 is designed for wide off-road tires meaning it would give you the extra clearance you need to run the typical wide off-road tires found on...

Do remember that mobile home axles were never designed for continuous use and are not as structurally strong as a Axle # e55GR. This particular axle has the same #42 spindle and a 89" hub face to hub face measurement. We do offer the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-174-5UC3 which has the 5 spoke utility mounting holes like the Dexter 8-222. You will need...

This uses # 15123 which have the same inner diameter as the # 14125A, it simply uses a different race so it will be compatible.

    It sounds like your trailer has the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-174-5UC3 with the 5 lug utility bolt pattern. This hub will use the Dexter Electric Brake Kit # 23-105-106-09 which can bolt to either a 4 bolt AL-KO brake flange or the 5 bolt standard bolt flange used on Dexter and Lippert axles.
