Are the L68111 and L68110 Races the Same

Question:

Hello Im looking for a new hub for my boat trailer and I dont see one I need. The hub I have now has a inner race of L68110 and bearing of L68149, the outer race is L44610 and bearing is L44649 the bolt pattern is 5 on 4 1/2. All the hubs I seen on the website had a inner race of L68111 Im not sure if they are interchangeable or not.

I can see why this is confusing. The outer diameter of the race, which is the only difference between the # L68111 and # L68110, is only important to the hub itself and they will both correspond to the # L68149 bearing that you mentioned. The race will only correspond to the hub and not to your spindles, so hubs with # L68111 races will work on your boat trailer just fine and would be interchangeable with hubs that have # L68110 races; you just wouldn't be able to use L68110 races in hubs that take L68111 races.

I recommend using the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 3.5K E-Z Lube Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Pre-Greased # AKHD-545-35-K, which come pre-greased and will work well with the specs you've mentioned.

I've linked a review video of these for you to have a look at, as well as our entire selection of hubs with 5 on 4-1/2 bolt patterns.
