How To Use Bearing Kit for #84 Spindle with Round Spindle

Question

Question:

Hi, I ordered the bk2-100 bearing kit and noticed the washer has a flat spot on it. This does not fit my axle since the axle is round without a flat spot. Is there another kit that will work?

In regards to the Bearing Kit for #84 Spindle part # BK2-100, if you have a round spindle you'd simply reuse the flat washer and spindle nut that was already on the axle. If you need them we do offer them as the Trailer Spindle Nut part # 165686, the Washer part # SW1000, and Cotter Pin part # 165649.

The ALKO 4,400 lb axles use the same bearing sizes as the standard 3,500 lb alxes. If you want USA made bearings, I recommend the Bearing Kit #TMK52VR. This kit comes with the Timken brand bearings which are all made here in the USA.
