We carry two different wheel bearing kits for 5,200 Lbs axles. The difference between the two set is in the inside diameter of the grease seals.

One kit, # BK3-300, uses a grease seal the measures 2-1/4 inches I.D. The other kit, # BK3-310, has a seal the measures 2-1/8 inches I.D. You will need to measure your current seals to see which kit will work for your application.

Both kits will include bearings, seal, and race cups. One kit per wheel.

I also recommend LubriMatic Bearing Packer, # L70025, and a tube of # L11465 grease.
