Recommended Replacement Spindles for up to 2,000 lb Axles
Question:
I recently bought replacement hubs for my trailer and noticed that my spindles are shorter and i couldnt put the nut on since the threads ended at he end of the outer bearing. It is a 5 bolt pattern on 1/16 inner and outer bering with 1 1/4 seal. can you point me in the right direction on what spindles to order? sincerely

Expert Reply:
For your replacement spindles, you will want the BT8 Spindle # TRU59FR for a round axle or # TRU97FR for a square axle. This will give you the dimensions you referenced. You will want to have a professional shop do the welding to ensure they are safely attached and won't have any angle that could cause problems with your bearings, hubs, or wheels.
