How to determine the correct bearings for Trailer Bearing Replacement

Question:

The bearing failed on one of my trailer wheels. No rollers/balls left... completely gone. I dont know what type of bearing to replace it with. I think there is only one bearing in there, though. Your kits include two bearings. How do I know what to get to replace it with? I have a small 14ft trailer with one small axle.

To determine the correct bearings for your trailer hubs you will need to supply some more information. The more information you can find, for the list below, the more likely we will be able to find the correct parts.

Part numbers form the inner and outer bearings on the other side of the trailer
Part number from the bearing seals
Type of trailer axle
Weight capacity of the trailer axle
Trailer hub part number
Wheel mounting hole pattern
Diameter of the inner bearing surface on the spindle
Diameter of the outer bearing surface on the spindle
Diameter of the seal bearing surface on the spindle

Let me know as much as you can and I will be glad to try and find the correct parts for your trailer.
