Jayco Jay Feather Ultra Lite 221 Travel Trailer Brake and Bearing Parts

Question

Question:

Im having trouble determining the correct parts for my Dexter Axle on my Travel Trailer Jayco Jay Feather Ultra Light 221. It has a gross weight of 4950 lbs, two Dexter axles that have a tag on them that says: S/N: 122817489 Capacity 3000 LBS. Above that is shows in small letters: 10H followed in large numbers by 0177889. Picture attached. I plan to inspect and repack the wheel bearings soon and will at least need to replace the rear seal. Id also like to know the correct bearings if they need to be replaced, and also the proper brake components. I dont want to find out after I have the rear seal removed that I dont have the correct seal. Would the Dexter 10 x 2-1/4 be the correct seal? Thanks in advance for your help.

According to Dexter Axle, your 3K Dexter Axle uses the # LM67048 inner bearing, the # LM67010 inner race, the # L44649 outer bearing and # L44610 outer race. For a replacement grease seal, use # 58846.

If your brake magnets or pads are worn, you can replace the brake assemblies using the Dexter 10 x 1-1/2 inch brake assemblies, part # K23-472-473-00 which include the left and right brake assembly as well as mounting hardware and the mud and crud plugs.

Hello Brian, we do offer some parts that will work for your application and will be very similar to the BPH1206EPR kit that you mentioned. Like you said, the 12 x 2-1/2 drums are pretty uncommon, so I would have to recommend going instead with the…
