Can Old Hubs be Transferred to Newer 3,500 lb Axle
Question:
I am looking to purchase those axle, however I already have hub assembly from my axle that I’m replacing, will I have to buy new hub assemblies or can I use my old ones?

As long as your current hubs, bearings, and seals are all in good shape then you'll be okay installing them on the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles # e53GR.
It's also worth noting your hubs need to use the # L68149 inner bearing, the # L44649 outer bearing, and a grease seal with a 1.719" inner diameter. If all that matches up then you're good to go on fitment and you just need to make sure you repack the bearings and hub!
