Recommendation For Dust Cap With Grease Nipple For Trailer

Question

Question:

I'm looking for a dust cap with grease nipple for my trailer. It's a folding utility trailer manufactured by Long Chih around 2008, Model No. LCI-851T. I've used calipers to measure the outside diameter of the existing cap: 2-1/32. I don't see anything on your site that exactly matches that. Can you advise me what product will fit?

Based on your information, the closest option we have in available inventory is the Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors, Item # BB2047SS. These work with several outer bearing models and fit a 2.047 inch hub bore. Because of how close these dimensions are to one another, I would double check your measurements and see if they might work.

I have attached additional information for you to check out. Let me know if you have any other questions.

The radial tire will run cooler with prolonged use on the highway so if this is going to make up the majority of the use then that is what I recommend using. The greatest chance for failure will be out on the highway as pressure and temperatures…

I recommend keeping the 4.80-12 size and going with a radial tire that's rated for the speeds you're driving at. The Taskmaster, part #TT48012C, is just that. It's rated up to 81 mph and has ply rating of 6 so the weight of your trailer…

Typically the only part of a trailer that has a speed rating is the tires, so if the reason your trailer is limited to 45 MPH is due to the speed rating of the tires, then yes you will be able to increase the speed rating of the trailer by replacing…

Answer 9

Not all 4.80 -12 size tires have the same tire width or overall diameter, though they are very similar. We carry 4 different 4.80-12 size tires, and those these measurements are very close, they are not all the same. The Kenda K353 Load Range C…

Answer 12

What you could do is use an axleless system #A35RS545E which comes with everything except a brake controller. The only issue is that you would need to also replace the tires and wheels with something like #TA73RR since the kit has a 5 bolt pattern…
