If you can route the brake lines of the part #HS496-252 on the inside of your trailer frame that's what I would recommend since it will give the lines the most protection as possible. Otherwise running them on the outside is fine too, but just…

Based on my research, the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 8,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles #AKHD-865-8-EZ-K will be a replacement for the 90865 Rockwell hub and drum. Both of these hub and drum assemblies are 12-1/4" diameter, have an 8,000 lb capacity,…
