With your 2004 Featherlite 8127 horse trailer having a 14,000LB GVWR you will have two 7,000lb axles. This will use either the Bearing kit # BK3-200 or # BK3-210. These kits are for 1 hub and have the same bearings with different grease seal sizes. The Kit # BK3-200 includes a grease seal with a 2.25" inner diameter while the Kit # BK3-210 includes a grease seal with a 2.125" inner diameter. There are 2 ways to identify what seal you have. First if your axles still have the manufacturer tag with the serial number for the axle on it we can contact the manufacturer to verify what size seal is required. Otherwise you can always slide off one of your hubs and measure the spindle or seal with a Caliper # PTW80157.
