Does the 2K Dexter Axle 5 on 4-1/2 Complete Hub-and-Drum Assembly Come Fully Assembled
Question:
Are the bearings already packed and pressed into the drums or does everything need assembled when I receive it?

Expert Reply:
Everything comes with the Dexter Axle 5 on 4-1/2 Complete Hub-and-Drum Assembly # 8-257-5UC3-EZ
but you will need to pack the bearings and then install them and the grease seal inside the hub and drum assembly.
You can use a bearing packer like part # PTW1218 to make packing the grease into the bearings much easier. This tool requires the use of a grease gun like part # L30200 and a cartridge like part # L11465 if you don't already have these handy.
If you'd rather avoid having to pack everything then we actually have our Hub and Drum Kit # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K which is the exact same thing, just with all of the bearings pre-packed with grease inside the hub.
