It sounds like you are looking for a hub that matches the TruRyde #84 Trailer Spindle, # TRU47FR. This spindle uses the L44649 outer bearing, L68149 inner bearing, a 10-19 grease seal and fits a 3,500 lb axle, so you actually have a wide range of hubs to choose from. I have attached a link to all of the hubs and hubs/drums that will fit.

When choosing a new or replacement trailer hub, there are a few things to keep in mind. If your trailer does not have brakes, then you will want an idler hub, like the Dexter Trailer Hub, # 84545BX. This is an idler hub with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern (the most common bolt pattern for 3,500 lb axles). If your trailer has electric or hydraulic drum brakes, then you will want a hub/drum assembly like part # 84546UC3, which also has the common 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. You will also want to make sure the bolt pattern of the hub matches your wheels. All of our hubs come with the bearings, races, seals and lug nuts, so you would not need to purchase any additional parts other than the wheel and tire.

If you can tell me what type of hub you are looking for, the wheel bolt pattern (see attached help article for help on how to determine your bolt pattern) and the size of your trailer wheels, I would be happy to make a more specific recommendation for you.
