Easiest Way to Find the Correct Replacement Hub and Drums for a Gooseneck Trailer

Question:

I have a tandem dual gooseneck trailer, 40ft. With 10 bolt hubs and 17.5 tires. Missing 1 brake drum hub. Want to know if you have 1 or can recommend somewhere else that might. Thanks

The best way to find what hubs you need for your gooseneck trailer would be to get underneath it and look for an axle tag. On this tag would be a weight rating which would lead you to the correct hubs.

For example, since you have a 40' gooseneck trailer, you probably have at least 9-10K axles which would mean that you could use the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 9K to 10K Axles # K08-288-90.

These'll work with axles made before July of 2009, so if you yours were made after, and if these are the correct size, then you'd want # 8-430-5UC3 instead.
