Question

Question:

I am looking at your part number T4084600042, and am trying to determine the hub length of it? As we are placing this between wheelsides for an industrial trailer we require this to determine the required spacers. Thank you.

I pulled from our warehouse a piece of Titan Trailer Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles # T4084600042 so that I could measure it for you. I have linked a photo of this 5-on-4-1/2 bolt pattern hub with various dimensions noted, including overall length which is 4-1/4-inches. The inside bore of both ends, not shown on the photo, is 2-inches.
