In order to determine what replacement hub and drums you'll need for your 2016 Forest River Sandpiper 5th Wheel you'll need to find out what size axles you have, and find out what bearings your hub uses.

To find that out, you are going to need to take apart your current hubs to see what numbers are stamped on the bearings. From here we'd be able to find out what replacement hubs are needed for your 5th wheel.

If you can't find any part numbers you can use a set of digital calipers a reference the image attached to measure the spots on the spindle, which will also tell us what bearings are supposed to be there.
