You can add larger wheels and tires to a trailer as long as you have enough room for the larger size. The main clearance issues we find when putting larger tires and wheels on a trailer is from the top of the tire to the fender and from the inside…

With the inner diameter of your bearing being 1.250 inches, there are currently 5 options as you stated. The best way to determine fit is to find your race number or to measure your bearing race inside your hub. The outer diameter of that race will…

Based on the information I could find for the DICO 45264 is was popular on ShoreLand'r trailers. This would require the Idler Hub #AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K with the Grease Seal #168255TB used instead of the seal included with the hub. We currently do…

We don't carry any hubs at this time that use bearing #LM67048 for both the inner and outer bearings. We do have some that use #LM67048 as the outer bearing and two that do as the inner bearing. I've linked the selections for you. If you have…

You can verify that the 10-19 grease seal included in Bearing Kit #BK2-100 is the correct one for your spindles by taking two measurements. First you want to measure the rear hub bore where the seal is inserted. The seal's outer diameter needs to…

Load range B trailer tires are going to have a lower capacity than C load range tires. Basically that, psi rating, and the ply rating are the only differences. A higher load range tire would last a little longer than lower load ranges of the same…

In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.

The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13 like…

Even though I cannot comment specifically on the grease you used because I am not familiar with it, I can tell you the best grease for trailer bearings is a a grease with a rating of GC-LB, which just means it is made to withstand very high…

A BT8 spindle would have a diameter of .99 of an inch where the bearings would both install and would have a diameter of 1.24 where the great seal would ride. That would require a hub part #AKIHUB-440-2-1K for an idler hub. A BTR spindle would have…

To determine the size of the hub assembly you need to purchase you have to determine which bearings are in the old assembly. If the old assembly has L44649 inner bearings, you would use the hub you chose #8-258-5UC1. If the inner bearings are marked…

I have attached a chart you can check out that describes the torque needed per wheel size, wheel stud size and material. For an 8-inch wheel with a 1/2-inch wheel stud the torque is 75 to 86 ft-lbs. For a 15 inch steel wheel with 1/2 inch wheel studs…
