I'm not sure if you are asking the weight capacity or weight of the Fulton Bolt-Thru Swivel Marine Jack with Dual Wheels # FXPD15L so I'll go ahead and give you both just to cover our bases.

This jack has a lift capacity of 1,500 lbs (which means the tongue weight it can lift as opposed to the entire trailer weight), and it weighs 20 lbs.

I did some checking and the hub/drum we offer that will work for you is the part #8-430-5UC3. This uses the same bearings as the 8-415 and will be an exact fit aside from the fact this is a non-ABS setup and the 8-415 came in an ABS setup and non-ABS…
