Picking Out Replacement Hub for 80's Car Mate Enclosed Trailer
Question:
Hello, I have a 1984/85 Car -Mate 4x8 enclosed trailer. The wheel bearings have not been done as far as I know. I would like to replace the complete hubs and wheels and tires. Right now, the wheels are lug centric. Would like to go with hub centric wheels. Can you tell me which hubs I would need to replace the old ones with. I dont know what size axle it is. Thanks,

Expert Reply:
We don't actually have any hub centric hubs as everything we offer is the more common lug-centric setup. Due to age of your trailer most likely the hubs you have are not compatible with what is available now but the axles could have been replaced.
To pick out replacement hubs you would need to know the axle capacity and the bearing numbers/spindle dimensions where bearings ride as well as the wheel bolt pattern.
