We have exactly what yo need! If your axle has EZ lube hubs with a grease zerk on the end of it use the Spindle Nut Kit for EZ Lube Axles part # RG05-100. This kit has the washer, nut and keeper for both sides. For non EZ lube hubs use the Trailer Spindle Nut 1" part # 165686. This is just the nut so grab the amount you'll need and if you don't have them on hand pick up the same number of these Cotter Pin, 1/8" x 1-3/4" part # 165649
