Question:

Trailer Hub Assembly - 2,200-lb E-Z Lube Axle - 5 on 4-1/2 - 13inch - 15inch Wheels - Galvanized - 8-258-50UC1-EZ I think this is the hubs I need. I have a Tracker Trailstar boat trailer, inner and outer bearings are L44649 seal diameter is 1.5. Do these hubs come with the races already pressed in?

Expert Reply:

The Trailer Idler Hub Assembly - Galvanized # 8-258-50UC1-EZ is correct if you have inner and outer bearings # L44649, the grease seal has a 1.50" inner diameter, and you have 13" to 15" wheels with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern.

This is for E-Z lube axles so if you have standard axles you can use the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly - Galvanized # 8-258-50UC1 which is the same part except its grease cap does not have a plug like # RG04-040 for access to the E-Z Lube grease zerk.

The hub assemblies do not come with the races pressed in so you will need to assemble the hub. For grease I recommend the LubriMatic Marine Trailer Wheel Bearing Grease # L54FR and a compatible grease gun like the # 30-800; for a bearing packer I recommend the Bearing Packer # PTW1218 or # ALL647646.

I have added links to video reviews for you to check out as well of both hubs, the E-Z Lube # 8-258-50UC1-EZ and standard # 8-258-50UC1.
