Are There Bearing Buddy Bearing Protector Grease Caps Compatible with Harbor Freight Utility Trailer
Question:
bearing buddies for harbor freight utility trailer Is there a product available that will replace a 2inch dust cap? Bearing buddies run 2.047 and 1.98. Neither of these sizes fit my trailer. The 1.98 fell right out and I pounded on the 2.047 with a rubber hammer for 5 minutes and it didnt budge. This is the Harbor Freight trailer I have.

Harbor Freight trailers are unique. They don't have any industry standard parts on them, so replacement parts are very difficult to find. We don't have any grease caps that will fit your 2-inch hub. It may be possible to replace your hubs with a different one that will fit your spindle measurements, but you'd need to use a digital caliper to check the spindle at the bearing locations and the grease seal.
