To pick out bearings for a trailer hub you will need to remove one of the hubs so that you can remove the bearings and get the numbers off of them. We don't have a way to look up what your trailer had in the hubs.

Or, you can measure the spindle where the bearings and seal ride so that we can pick you out the correct bearings that would fit the spindle.

Check out the link I attached that has a chart with all the bearings we offer with their dimensions.
