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"

Bought these to replace #5200lb house trailer hubs for a utility trailer. Great fit! Fast shipping.



by:

Excellent product. Have used them on 3 trailers. Every time I buy a used trailer, I completely rebuild the hubs, bearings and brakes.

I don’t trust other people to keep boat axels, up to my standards. We travel long distances with our boat trailers.

Never had a failure.

Thank You etrailer!

Great service, reasonably priced!

I bought these hubs to replace the 30+ year old originals on the 6000 lb axle under my late fathers homemade 4x8 trailer. The original hubs couldn't have modern wheels mounted to them so doing this allowed me to mount modern 225/15r75 tires and wheels as well as have a spare. Install was quick and easy, the fit of every part was perfect. Service from etrailer was excellent, couldn't have been better.



by:

Excellent experience all the way around! Fast shipping. Simple installation. Great instructions and videos. Reasonable prices. The best part though is the customer service. I ended up speaking to William B a couple times and he guided me thought ordering exactly the right thing. He had me confirm various measurements on my trailer to ensure I had the correct parts. Actually he helped me discover that the parts I was removing were incorrect so if we had of replaced like for like I would have had problems. Getting this right up front made the installation and final quality what it should be. Thank you eTrailer and thank you William!

I searched for what seemed like forever to find a fix for my mobile home trailer axles. I bought a homemade trailer and was needing new tires, they were and odd size 14.5... and I needed new bearings too. The axles were 5200 lb axles. The wheels had a very bad wobble and I felt like I was going to spend a lot money to make a temporary fix. There was so much conflicting information on these axles and compatibility of replacement parts. I bought these hubs and hoped for the best. They fit perfectly! I'm very pleased. I ordered them last night and they arrived this afternoon! Overnight shipping?! Also the costumer service was amazing!! I asked so many questions and felt like i was talking to a friend i've known my whole life.



by:

Items came quickly once in stock. I asked for them separately but would have lost the free shipping...good looking out! Went from old Christmas tree farm trailer to camp hauler. The updated hubs and rims were the last piece. Great customer service!



by:

Received 2 dexter hubs and replaced my mobile home hubs with them in about an hour I used Toyota rims from a 1999 trunda fits great did use longer nuts becouse the rims had counter sunk holes



by:

Following a minor shipping hiccup, James at etrailer.com responded quickly and professionally to get my new hubs to me in a timely manner. Things may not always go as planned with shipments, but I know I can count on the crew at etrailer to make it right.
Thanks James and George!!

Perfect fit, good quality at reasonable choice. If I need future trailer items, eTrailer will be my go-to.

Shipping time was good. Perfect fit. Repaced mobile home hubs with these. Make sure you have the right size inner and outer bearings.



by:

Excellent technical support. Excellent order support - emailed and suggested an alternative when a part was not in stock. FAST delivery.

I had never used etrailer before but was VERY impressed and highly recommend! 5 stars all the way!!!

Perfect to replace the Mobile hubs on my 40 yr. old homemade trailer and put on 15" trailer wheels and tires. I will send pictures when finished. Thanks etrailer.com

Everything worked perfectly. I wanted a conversion kit like this for over 20 years. Glad I found etrailer.com. Thanks



by:

This seems to be a good quality hub. I haven't gotten the opportunity to install as circumstances have conspired against me so far but I'm sure it will work perfectly.

The real bright spot is that there was a minor problem with my order and Rebecca and George were very quick to respond. They got everything fixed with absolutely no hassle! The level of customer service has proven to me that the staff at etrailer.com are willing to do everything possible to find the right solution for the customer. I will definitely be shopping with etrailer.com again!!

These idler hubs are great! Very happy with them. I have used the trailer several times and there haven’t been any issues. Finally no more squeaking and squealing from bad bearings and hubs.

A great fit, and easy install. Got me out of a tight bind. We can get back on the road tomorrow. eTrailer always comes through for me.

Best thing I've ne for the trailer

I have a utility trailer that I have
had for over 25 years. It had a mobile home axle on it with Dayton style hubs and 14.5. inch rims and tires. I wanted to change over to a more traditional hubs and wheels. The help from Sam G was great. I gave him the part number of outside and inside bearings and he found me the hub that fit my spindle. The delivery was fast. One of the bearings came bent but replacement was not an issue. The description of the hub only showed it was for 16" rims but Sam found a 15" rim that worked. - Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Black Pictures sent to Sam in email.



by:

I bought these hub assemblies to replace the ones that came with the boat trailer. Since they were installed I live 50 miles south of Chicago. The trailer has been to Okeechobee Fl. 2 times, also Chetek Wisconsin 3 times. When traveling ,every time I stop for eats or fuel I feel the hubs. The hubs are always just a few degrees above ambient.
PS I also installed S.S. bearing buddy's, from E Trailer.

Have not installed items at this time, but service has been GREAT so far. Waiting for a few more parts.

works great



by:

Product looks good, and well made.
Trying
to convert a trailer house axle however didn't fit my application. Knew I would need to make bearing sleeves but when arrived I found my spindle wasn't long enough. So had to order spindles to match.

Also was planning on using rims off a 2006 chevy Silverado however they won't work because of the center hole needs to be larger. Older Chevy rims made for 4WD should work. Center hole should be around 4-4.5".

For future reference, measure length of your spindles as well as bearing and seal diameters.

A mention of spindle length needed as well as the center diameter of the hub would be a good things to add to description.

Great people to work with. Very friendly and knowledgeable. In shipping a bearing and cap was destroyed. They took care of it right away. No pictures, no explanation needed.



by:

Fit perfectly on my trailer house axles. My buddy and I swapped them out with ease. I already recommended the same type to two other friends with the same type of axles. David S. & Mark S. I'm ordering wheels and tires next. Thanks for offering a superior product.

This hub was a great upgrade to my trailer,the quality and service was excellent, very happy with etrailer

Hauled a many loads since my hub upgrade from etrailer, I am still very pleased 1 year later, Thank You!



by:

I have home built trailer with a mobile home axle on it. Getting tires for was getting harder to find and they were unable to balance them. I got replacement hubs, bearings, wheels and tire from etrailer. They arrived in 3 days. An hour after they arrived I had them instaled. The seals didn't match but the old seals were in good shape so I used them. The dust covers did not fit so I used the old ones there. I think it is just very hard to get everything to match up on those axles. I am very happy with the results.
Rose at etrailer was very helpful on my initial call too.
I have since placed another order for hubs, wheels and tires for an other trailer I am repairing.
Thank you Rose for your help.

by:

This is a on going project on a utility trailer that I have had for over 25 years that has a mobile home axle on it changing over to a more traditional hub and wheel, the help that I got from etrailers was great, delivery was fast and the product was out standing. Thank you for everything and pictures will follow this spring as the trailer get built.:)

  • Availability Of 5 On 5-1/2 Hubs For A 5.2K Or 6K Axle
    A #84 spindle is the standard 3,500 lb axle spindle. It uses an inner bearing L68149 (1.378" inner diameter), and an outer bearing L44649 (1.063" inner diameter). These days this is basically universal for 3,500 lb axles. What you have with your 25580 outer and LM67048 Inner bearings is either a 5,200 lb or 6,000 lb axle. The 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern and the 3" round tube also indicate a 5.2K or 6K axle. With your axle and bearing combination, there are not any hubs with a 5 on 5-1/2"...

  • Which Idler Hubs Will Work the Trailer Axle Beam # e45GR
    Depending on the size of your wheel and the bolt pattern we do have some different options for an idler hub for the Trailer Axle Beam # e45GR. If your wheel size is 14" - 16 1/2" and the bolt pattern is 6 on 5 1/2", you can use an idler hub like the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 5,200-lb Axles - 6 on 5-1/2" # 8-213-5UC1. If your wheels are 16" - 17 1/2" and the bolt pattern is 8 on 6 1/2", you can use an idler hub like the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly - 5,200-lb, 6,000-lb and...

  • Idler Hub and Spindle Recommendation with 5,200 lb Capacity and 6 on 5-1/2 inch Bolt Pattern
    For a spindle that fits the hub part # 8-213-5UC1 you'd want the part # 52655IEU which comes with the 5,200 lb hub you mentioned and the correct matching spindle for you to install. The hub you mentioned will not fit the agricultural spindle you mentioned due to the difference in seal dimensions.

  • Fit of Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 6,000 lb E-Z Lube Axles
    Your photos did not come through but I think I can still answer your question. The hubs you get must be compatible with your spindle, and that means you will need to look at your hub bearings; 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 need to use a digital caliper and measure your spindle to the thousandths of an inch where the bearings and grease seal ride. You can use the photo I've attached to see...

  • 3,500 lb Timbren Axle Less Kit with 4 inch Lift Recommendatio for Trailer
    We can certainly help you pick out a 3,500 lb Timbren kit with a lift kit like the part # ASR35HDS02 which fits the bill. But the only way this would increase your trailer's weight capacity is if this was the limiting factor for your trailer's current capacity. You're only as strong as your weakest component so you'd need to verify that everything else on your trailer is rated for 3,500 lb to ensure you'd get the full capacity of this kit. This also has a 4 inch lift like you wanted too....

  • Recommended Trailer Hubs and Wheels for Axle with 25580 Inner and LM67048 Outer Bearing
    I recommend starting with the Dexter # 8-213-5UC1 (hubs) or the # 8-201-5UC3 (hub and drum) that use the # 25580 inner bearing and # LM67048 outer bearing; these hubs both have a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern, and come pre-greased so they're ready to install. If you're using the # 8-201-5UC3 you can add brakes using 12" brakes like the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting - 12" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 5.2K to 7K # AKEBRK-7-SA. You'll want to make sure your axles have a 5 bolt...

  • Replacement Spindle for 6,000 Pound Axle
    The spindle where your grease seal sits should be smooth as you mentioned. It looks like a bearing probably blew on your hub to cause that type of damage on the spindle. Your only option will be to replace the spindle or the entire axle. If you have a 6,000 pound axle, the spindle we have available is the TruRyde # TRU57FR. This spindle uses the # 25580 inner bearing and # 14125A outer bearing so you will want to make sure this matches up to your current hubs. Just note that the replacement...

  • Replacement Option For Old Hadco LA3107 Trailer Hub
    I'd love to help as you asked but that specific hub just doesn't exist anymore. While you can get a hub that uses the same bearings, the issue is the wheel bolt pattern will be 6 on 5-1/2" as there isn't an option for the rare 5 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern. This does mean you'd need to switch your wheels, but I did want to at least give you the option; what you can use if you like is the following: - Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 5,200-lb Axles - 6 on 5-1/2 # 8-213-5UC1 This uses the...

  • Replacement Hubs for a 2003 Venture Boat Trailer Model 2250 with 6-Lug Hubs
    I did a little research and found that your 2003 Venture Boat trailer model 2250 has a capacity of 2,250 pounds but the 6-lug hubs and bearing information I found indicate that it uses hubs normally seen on 5,200 pound axles. Since you have a boat trailer you might be interested in Kodiak hub # KH42655S which is stainless steel so it won't corrode. It uses inner bearing 25580 and outer bearing 15123. Another option is hub # 8-213-5UC1 which uses the same inner bearing but a different...

  • How to Identify Correct Replacement Bearings for Dexter Hub on Recreational Vehicle
    The Dexter hub part number prefix 8-201 could refer to many items and includes many possible weight capacities. So the best way to go is to pull one hub, remove the bearings and find their stamped part numbers. If you happen to know the axle's weight rating that will allow you to narrow things down if you refer to the linked article. This article lists the most common bearing sets used based on axle weight rating. Still, the best and most fool-proof way to go is to pull one hub and get...

  • Will # 8-213-5UC1 and # 8-231-9UC1-EZ Hubs Fit the Same Spindle
    Although both hubs you mention use a different outer bearing, the inside diameter of those different bearings is the same, so both hubs CAN be used on the same spindle. The outer diameter and thickness of both bearings is different, so the bearings cannot be swapped back and forth between the two different hubs. A 5200 lb axle is a de-rated 6000 lb axle. Therefore, swapping to the higher rated # 8-231-9UC1-EZ hub won't necessarily increase the capacity of your trailer. You'll be limited...

    All idler hubs and hub/drums that use your bearing set # 25580 and # LM67048 appear on the linked page. For the idler hub use either standard 6-on-5-1/2 hub # 8-213-5UC1 or EZ-Lube hub # 8-213-5UC1-EZ. These include seals with a different I.D. so you'll also need 2.250-inch I.D. seal # GS-2250DL. For a 6-on-5-1/2 hub/drum use either standard model # 8-201-5UC3 or EZ-Lube model # 8-201-5UC3-EZ. Again you'll need to add the alternate seals # GS-2250DL. These various hubs use either a...

This hub has a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern so finding wheels to fit should be no problem. The idler hub assembly would be # 8-213-5UC1.

  • Replacement Idler Hub And Tire/Wheel Combo For Trailer With # 42 Spindle
    The Dexter Trailer Hub Assembly, part # 8-213-5UC1 is the correct replacement for the hub you have on your trailer. Since the seal included has a 2.125 inner diameter, you will indeed want to get the seals separately with part # RG06-070. The Westlake Radial Tire/Wheel Combo, part # LHAW121 will work great with this hub. This is an 8-ply Load Range D tire with a maximum load rating of 2,150-lbs at 65 psi.
