According to the information I could find on your 2022 Grand Design 2500RL it comes with 3,500LB Dexter axles. This will use the Grease Seals # RG06-050 for one axle. We also have the Bearing Kit # BK2-100 which includes the bearings, races, and grease seal for one hub.

Yes, the Timken Bearing Kit #TMK52VR will fit your 3,500 lb axle as it fits an standard #84 spindle. The only time this kit won't fit with a 3,500 lb axle is if the trailer/axle is made before the 2000's since that's about the time that…
