Thoroughly Tested for Safety
This hub-and-drum assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This assembly has also been tested by QAI for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.
E-Z Lube and Easy Grease-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 or etrailer Easy Grease 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"

Arrived fast and install went flawless.
After one year later I rechecked the torque on lug nuts and the free play on center nut. All good…..my advice is get a spare to keep in trailer for an emergency repair, like what happened to me when all the wheel studs broke off and I lost the entire wheel!
by: William01/15/2024
I purchased 6 of these hubs for replacement of what I call "mobile home" hubs so that I could convert to standard rims and tires. They worked perfectly. I have several thousand miles on them now with absolutely no issues. Excellent product!
by: Mommaski07/21/2017
Our Flat bed trailer can do some pretty heavy work however we do not use this trailer all the time.
When the brakes failed we ordered from etrailer and the parts came in and we installed them without much ado.
Thank you for having all the parts we needed. After a year of seldom but heavy usage the self adjusting brakes are still working splendidly.
by: Geoffrey 05/08/2024
The order showed up in a quick timing. Everything was in great shape and installation was a breeze.
by: Tim 03/29/2024
Exact replacement. One year later and still working great. About 2000 miles.
by: Lewis06/07/2020
these arrived ups in poorly wrapped boxes with one hub openly displayed but after close inspection it appears no damage and they fit onto the hub without issue. like they're pre-packed with grease, bearings so they are ready to install. they slid on easily and matched up with new brakes ordered earlier. all around great package for brakes overhaul. highly recommend

Item is damaged, 1 lug nut missing, 1 stud cross thread, dust cap damaged.

Hub and drum assembly fell apart in the center within one year! Bearings look fine!
by: William 04/24/2024
Really heavy duty. The pre-grease takes all the hassle out of the replacement job.
by: Shawn 12/02/2023
Great price and worked with no issue on 3,000 mile trip. It was great to install them already greased and ready to go.

Perfect fit, and easy to install, especially with the video from the site!
by: Darrin A.07/17/2018
This was way easier than expected, the hardest part was the mess inside, but installing the kit per the online video instructions was a snap and I encourage anyone to do theirs. Here's a couple after pictures.

I was in desperate need for new hub/drum assemblies for my flatbed trailer. Once again etrailer came through for me. I particularly like the fact these arrive assembled with seals and pre-packed bearings.

These hub and drum assemblies worked great right out of the box. They were easy to install. I have since sold the trailer but the brakes made a big difference in use of the trailer and in the resale value.
by: Terry Murphy05/18/2017
The hubs bearings and seals are outstanding products and pretty simple to install. I had a small issue with the dust caps as they were to tight to just tap into the hub. I like the fact that the wheel studs in these hubs are a little longer than factory parts!
Great Product.
by: James 05/26/2023
Just got back from trip to Bowling Green. Pulled camper with 3/4t Ram. Adjusted electric brake and all worked perfect. Now, I did have 3 tire separations. They were 3318 date code load E on a 6500# camper. 3 of four separated, today replaced. Now FYI, 3 YEARS REPLACE TIRES!!! I try to replace between 3 to 5 years but haven't used the camper but 4 times and about 2k miles.
by: Derick A. 09/21/2017
Parts were an exact match. I replaced the brake assemblies, drums and bearings on my toy hauler. Was not sure these would work with Lippert 5200 lb. axles but, etrailer assured me I was buying the parts I needed.

Perfect fit, easy installation
by: Michael 06/14/2023
I like ordering from here because of good service and quick delivery. I’ve only got about two thousand miles on my trailer since I changed bearings and hubs but everything seems to working out very well so far,very satisfied.
by: Leon 04/08/2024
so nice not having to pack the berings
by: James03/24/2023
Christina helped me make sure that I ordered the correct hub. Ordered on Monday arrived on Thursday. Hubs came assembled and greased as advertised. Not knowing what grease was in the hub, I was concerned that there might not be enough grease to finish the job, like coating the axle or that finishing touch on the outer bearing. No worries, there was plenty of grease, more than I would have normally used. I'm not a grease expert but it seemed to be good stuff, very sticky and not overly stiff. I noticed that the couple of places that I could see a bearing, that the bearing had been pressure packed with streams of grease between the rollers. The hubs came in heavy, individual, corrigated boxes, and in a heavy plastic bag, perhaps explaning why they were clean and not banged up when I got them. Each end of the hub had a plastic plug in it to keep it clean. You'll need your axle washer, nut and retainer. Good on ya' Etrailer.

This was a perfect fit replacement assembly, pre-greased and everything ready to go. It made the repair an easy process.

Great alternative to putting OE Dexter brakes on. Saved us over $1000 on each of our trailers that needed brakes replaced!

- Replacement Recommendation for Dexter Axle 8-201 Hub Assembly on Older Horse TrailerWe've got you covered! To replace your wheel bolts you need the Dexter Wheel Bolt # 7-262 which is a 1/2" diameter and 2-11/16" long. Since your hub and drum assembly looks to be pretty worn though I recommend just replacing the whole thing so you have completely new bearings and a seal as well. To replace the whole drum assembly you'll need part # 8-201-5UC3-EZ. The bearings that come with this kit match your application (I checked with my contact at Dexter Axle) but you will want to...

- Which Hubs/Drum Assembly and Brakes for Timbren Axle-Less Suspension 3500-lbs with 4 LiftI may have a solution for you, but there is not a 5 on 5" bolt pattern hub and drum that is going to be compatible with the Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - 4" Lift Spindle - Wide Tires - 2,000 lbs # ASR2KHDS03. In order to use your 5 on 5" wheels you would need to get an adapter, which can usually be found via an off-road or auto parts retailer. For a hub and drum assembly that will fit on your Timbren Axle-Less system you can use the Trailer Hub and Drum # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K,...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Convert Boat Trailer with 6 Lug Hubs to Electric BrakesBased on the drum size and bolt pattern of the drums that you have now the correct brake assemblies you want to convert your trailer to electric brakes would be the part # AKEBRK-7R-SA and # AKEBRK-7L-SA and then for new hubs # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K and then you'd be set. These hubs are pre-greased too which means a less messy install. To wire up the brakes you'll want to use 10 gauge wire which we sell by the foot as part number # 10-1-1.

- Which Electric Trailer Brakes Fit a 2017 Heartland Torque T285?From all of the information I can find on your 2017 Heartland Torque T285 it should have left the factory with tandem 6,000lbs axles though I recommend crawling under it and checking the axle tag on the center of the axles to confirm this as trailer manufacturers like to change parts randomly. The Dexter # 23-105-106 you were looking at would be the correct replacement for your 6,000lb axles. While you have the drums off check that there's no ridges/wear or else you'll need to also replace...
view full answer... - Pre-Greased Hub/Drum for 3500 lb Spindles on 2018 R Pod 178 and Four Winns D0210S02 TrailerIf you have a 3500 lb axle, you'll have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. You can confirm this by measuring the center to center distance between 2 adjacent wheel studs. If it's 2-5/8 of an inch, you absolutely for certain have a 5 on 4-1/2 which is typical for a 3500 lb axle. The # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K 10 inch hub/drum you looked at is compatible with a 3500 lb axle, it uses an L68149 inner and an L44649 outer bearing and a 58846 grease seal and has a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. The bearings,...
view full answer... - 5,200 Lb Timbren Axle-Less System With Compatible Hub, Drum and Electric BrakesThe Warner-style brake assemblies are no longer made and replacement parts are essentially non-existent at this point, so really your best option is going to be replacing your hub and drum as well as brake assemblies. You may also need to weld on a new brake mounting flange, which will be determined by the diameter of your axle. In order to find the correct replacement hubs for your trailer you need to know the weight rating of your axle, and also what bearings your current hub has. You...
view full answer... - Correct Electric Brake Kit for 3.5K Heavy Duty Timbren Axle-Less Trailer SuspensionHey Patrick, thanks for reaching out! The 3.5K Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - Heavy Duty # ASR35HDS01 have a 5-bolt brake mounting flange so you'll need the etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes # AKEBRK-6. For the hub and drum assembly you'll need the part # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K (2 per axle).
view full answer... - Replacement Hub and Drum Assembly for Equipment Trailer with Mobile Home AxlesBased on the measurements you have taken, the inner bearing is the # LM48548. This is a bearing for an agricultural hub and does not match any hub and drum assemblies with the # LM67048 outer bearing. This is common with mobile home axles. More often than not the only option is to replace the axle, which is what you will need to do if you want to change the hubs and drums to use different wheels. If you decide to replace your axles, you will need to know the capacity as well as the length...

- What Bolt Pattern Holds Hub/Drums # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K to AxleThe hub/drums part # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K that you referenced don't attach to braking flanges but the brake assemblies that normally get used with these like part # 23-458-459 attach using a 5 bolt pattern. Hubs attach with a spindle nut like what you see in the attached install video.

Both the Timbren's and the Easy Grease Trailer Hub use a inner bearing item # 25580 and an outer bearing item # 15123. The hub is sold individually, has a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern, and is compatible with 16" wheels. For a set of electric...

- Recommended Trailer Hub for the # 15123 Outer BearingI have a recommendation for you, however, you will not be able to use the # 15123 bearing with your current hub. The 15123 bearing will fit on your spindle, but it will be too large for the hub and race. I have a few recommendations for you. If you have trailer brakes, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly 5,200 lbs. and 6,000 lbs. Axles # AKHD-655-6-K. This hub and drum will work with electric or hydraulic brakes. If you have an E-Z Lube Spindle, you will want the etrailer...

The Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 5.2K & 6K Axles # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K comes with a lithium complex, multipurpose grease. Attached is a chart showing what grease types are compatible with each other. As long as your current grease it compatible with Lithium Complex you'll be good to go - otherwise you'll need to clean all of the grease off prior to installing this hub/drum kit.

- Correct Brakes for the Timbren 3,500 Lb Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer SuspensionIn order to add brakes and hubs/drums to the Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension part # ASR35HDS05 you'll need to use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # AKEBRK-7-SA and the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K which has a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern.
view full answer... - Can Trailer Wheel Fit on Hub if the Center Hole is Larger Than Hub BoreIf the center hole of your wheel is larger than the hub bore of the # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K this would not be a problem at all. The wheel actually centers on the hubs by the lug nuts so having extra room for the wheel center isn't a problem at all. It's actually very normal.
view full answer... - Continuous Trailer Bearing Failures On Single WheelI am sorry to hear about all the issues you are having with your trailer. Based on what you described, I would lean towards an issue with the spindle rather than the weight capacity of the hubs. The reason being that if your hubs were truly underrated, you would most likely have issues with all of them not just the same spindle. The damage to your spindle is likely not noticeable however, it only takes a small degree off center to cause problems. If the angle at which the spindle lies in...
view full answer... - Option For Replacing 6k Axle With Spring Center Length Not AvailableI sincerely apologize but we do not have axles with that measurement. The only option I can offer is to replace them with the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # TASR7KS01. This removes having to find an exact length of axle, and you would also need Hub & Drum # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K.
view full answer... - Brakes, Hubs, Tires and Wheels for 6,000 lb AxleI have a complete setup for your trailer that will work great with your 6,000 lb axles. I recommend using the Electric Trailer Brake Assembly, both left # AKEBRK-7L-SA and right # AKEBRK-7R-SA hand sides of your trailer. These brakes have the self-adjusting feature on them so you don't have to manually adjust your trailer brakes every 3,000 miles. Since you are building a trailer, you are going to need some wiring as well. I am not sure what kind of trailer you are building, but you...

To do this you would need to remove one of the studs and measure the diameter of the spines, length of the splines, and overall length of the stud. For example if the spline diameter is .69" and the spline length is roughly 1" then the Replacement Trailer Hub Wheel Stud,...

You will also just want to take note of the axle capacity on your trailer, as this assembly is designed for 5,200 to 6,000 pound axles. The taper that you mentioned on your trailer's spindle is not an issue. This hub and drum assembly features a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern and the...

- What Bolt Pattern Wheel and Hub for Timbren Axle Less Kit 3500 Off Road TiresThe bolt pattern of your F-150 is 6 on 135 mm which is close to 6 on 5-1/2 inch which is the standard trailer wheel bolt pattern closest but not a match so it would not be transferable. It's not recommended to mix trailer and vehicle wheels as well since they are rated differently. With the Timbren kit part # TASR35HDS03 you'd want the hub/drums # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K which has the bolt pattern I mentioned and then for brake assemblies # AKEBRK-7-SA.

You can just swap them out as you mentioned. Based on the hubs you were looking at, I recommend the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting - 12" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 5.2K to 7K # AKEBRK-7-SA. These assemblies will need the initial adjustment at installation and then will self-adjust from that point. These assemblies will be labeled so you install them on the correct side of...
view full answer... - Replacement Brakes and Hub/Drum Assembly for 12" AxleTek BrakesThe correct replacement brakes for your application are the Left Assembly # AKEBRK-7L-SA and the Right Hand Assembly # AKEBRK-7R-SA. For a hub/drum assembly you should be able to use part # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K which is the matching piece to the brakes listed above, but you'll want to confirm first that you have the inner bearing # 25580, outer bearing # 15123, and that your grease seal has a 2.25" inner diameter. Attached are some installation videos that you can check out.
