You will want to use a dial caliper or micrometer like part # PTW80157 to measure the inner diameter of the hub you have on your trailer to determine what size cap would be needed. Check out the picture I attached that shows this measurement being taken on a hub.
I attached a link to all the grease caps we offer, once you know what size you need check out the link I attached to see all the sizes we offer.
