Can You Swap Easy Grease Caps onto the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 3,500 lb Axles - 10"
Question:
I have 4 items in my cart. My question concerns item #AKHD-545-35-K. Will I be able to use my existing grease zerk cap, so that I wont need to remove the wheel to access the grease fitting? Thanks in advance.

The Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 3,500-lb Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Pre-Greased is offered with two different grease caps, part # AKHD-545-35-K for standard or part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K for easy lube spindles. I suppose you could order the hub that comes with standard grease caps and just reuse your easy lube caps but I recommend the hub that comes with the easy lube grease caps since you would get newer, better components this way.
