Question:
I have a boat trailer that have dexter hubs #8-258. Which one is the correct one to replace the old ones and can you tell me what size axle these bearings fit thank you so much

Expert Reply:
The hub part number # 8-258-5UC1-EZ that you referenced would be the correct hub for you as it would be an exact replacement to what you currently have. It comes with a set of matching bearings to fit your spindle.
The bearings this hub uses are the # L44649 for the inner and outer. This means you have a BTR spindle on a 2,000 lb axle on your trailer.
