Expert Reply:

The bearing kit you're looking for is # BK2-100. This includes outer bearing # L44649, outer race # L44610, inner bearing # L68149, and inner race # L68111.

The race you mentioned L44510 is not in the kit and I haven't found a race with this model number at all. It's likely the number is difficult to read or partially missing and it's actually the # L44610. To be sure you can use a digital caliper, like # PTW80157, and measure your current race to match them up. the # L44610 has outer diameter of 1.980 inches.

Answer 5

To determine the size of the hub assembly you need to purchase you have to determine which bearings are in the old assembly. If the old assembly has L44649 inner bearings, you would use the hub you chose #8-258-5UC1. If the inner bearings are marked…

Hey Scott, so the braking and hub components of a Dexter 3,500 lb axle made in 1999 would be the same as what's currently used so those components would transfer over. So a bare axle like the part #T3584F-EZ-8974 would work for you but you'd…
