Hub Recommendation for 3,500 lb Axle with 5 on 4-1/2 inch Bolt Pattern
Question:
I have a 5X8 utility trailer with a 3500lb axle. I want to change my hubs to 5 on 4-1/2. I would like to make sure everything I have on the part list below will work together. I am going to put 205/75R15 tires on the wheels. I am going to buy 3 wheels one for a spare and 2 hubs. I am thinking about welding to the angle iron on front of the trailer. Does the hubs come with a double seal and a cotter pin? Spare Tire Carrier - Horse Trailer Code: 413200 Trailer Hub Assembly for 3,500-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 5 on 4-1/2 Code: 84545UC1-EZ Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel - 15inch x 6inch Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Silver Powder Coat Code: AM20537

Helpful Expert Reply:
The three parts you mentioned are compatible with each other. The spare tire carrier part # 413200 can have 5 lug wheels attached to it like the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20537 which will fit the trailer hub part # 84545UC1-EZ.
The hub does come with a double lip seal but it does not come with a cotter pin or spindle nut.
Since it sounds like you have an EZ lube spindle you would want the part # RG05-100 for a spindle nut kit that includes a tang washer.
