Trailer Hub Replacement Recommendation that Uses Wheel Bolts and Bearings # L44643
Question:
I am looking for some replacement hubs for a light duty trailer. My inner and outer bearings are L44643. The hub has wheel bolts instead of wheel studs. Can I use a standard hub with studs or do I need to have the same hub that utilizes bolts? This is the only hub I see using bolts. CE Smith Trailer Hub Assembly w/ Carrying Case for 2,500-lb Axles - 4 on 4 - Pre-Greased - Threaded Item # CE13100 I would rather use a standard hub with studs. What do I need??? Thank you in advance.

Expert Reply:
The easiest solution is the part # CE13100 that you referenced as it fits as a replacement and your current wheels will work great with it. If you convert to a wheel stud style hub though you are going to have to get new wheels too as the wheels you have are designed for the wheel bolts.
If that's still something you want to do let me know what tire size you have so I can pick out the correct wheel/tire combo you need.
