Needing to Find the Correct Bearing Buddies on 7,000 Lbs Trailer Axles
Question:
I recently purchased a new trailer that has bearing buddys. The axles are 7,000 lb and it is a triple axle. I like to keep spare parts on hand as I use the trailer extensively. I have used BBs before on a lot of trailers, this one is different. There is like a spacer ring inside the hub that the bearing buddy goes into. Do you by chance sell these.

When finding which set of Bearing Buddies will work on your trailer axles, you will need to find a couple of pieces of information.
First, know the outer bearing number would be the best piece of info that you can use to figure out which Bearing Buddies set will fit your axles. For example, if your outer bearing is # 14125A, then # BB2717SS would be the correct Bearing Buddies Set.
If you can measure the outer diameter of the part, then you can also look-up the Bearing Buddies Set this way to find the correct fit.
I have linked the product page of all the Bearing Buddies that we carry. Once you know either the O.D of the part or the outer bearing number, then you can pic the correct product for your application.
