I can get you a hub assembly that fits, but the Idler Hub Assembly # 84655UC1-EZ will NOT work with the Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # TASR35HDS06.

Instead, you're going to need a hub and drum assembly with this suspension and the correct fit is Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K. This assembly is compatible with the Timbren's EZ Lube spindle and uses the correct inner bearing # 25580, outer bearing # 15123 and grease seal # GS-2250DL
