I am happy to help Jeff but Trailer manufactures do not make the wheel,drum and hub information readily available for public use. First to replace the wheel and tire, I would need to know the wheel diameter and tire size from the existing wheels and tires. I would also need to know the bolt pattern of the existing wheels. I have attached a helpful article that will show you how to measure for the bolt pattern information.

To choose a hub, I would need to know the axle capacity of the axle on the trailer and the bearings inside the hub. The easiest way to find out the bearing information is to pull the hub of and take the bearings out. The bearings are usually stamped with bearing numbers. Another way to figure out the bearings is to measure the spindle. I have attached a helpful diagram that shows where to measure the spindle for bearings.

If your brake assembly needs to be replaced, I would need to know the depth measurement of the hub and if the brakes are electric or hydraulic.
