Expert Reply:

Based on our previous findings your hub is for a 3,500lb axle and is designed for 10" brakes. We have either the Manual Adjusting # AKEBRK-35 or Self-Adjusting # AKEBRK-35-SA depending on your preference.

If you are needing new drums you will want to verify the current bearings and seals used on your hubs. If they are the most common L68149 inner and L44649 outer with a 1.719" ID grease seal the Drum/Hub Assembly # AKHD-545-35-K is the one you will need. If you have anything different please let me know so I can help you find the correct parts.

I was able to find the 126003 hub and was able to determine that it is a 3,500 lb hub/drum with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern just like the #AKHD-545-35-K that you referenced. This hub will work as a replacement for your Lippert.
