Replacement Bearing Kit For a 2016 Forest River Wildwood 31QBTS Travel Trailer With 5,200LB Axles
Question:
I am not sure how to determine the type of axles I have on my 2016 Wildwood travel trailer. The model number is a 31QBTS. Could you tell me which kit is the right one for this trailer? Thank you.

Expert Reply:
Your 2016 Forest River Wildwood 31QBTS is going to have 5,200lb axles underneath it. For that there are 2 bearing kits available and they have different grease seals.
The Bearing Kit # BK3-300 contains inner and outer bearings and races, a cotter pin for the spindle nut and a Grease Seal # GS-2250DL which is 2.25" in inner diameter.
The Bearing Kit # BK3-310 contains the same inner and outer bearings and races, a cotter pin and tang washer for the spindle nut and a Grease Seal # GS-2125DL which has an inner diameter of 2.125".
To verify the correct kit for your trailer you should have an axle serial number stamped on the back of the axle tube approximately 18" from the passenger hub. With those serial numbers I can verify what parts you do have. You can also pull apart one of your hubs to verify which grease seal you do have. The numbers should be stamped onto the grease seal or you can measure the spindle with a Digital Caliper # PTW80157
