Axle Replacement Recommendation for a Trailer With Mobile Home Axles
Question:
I have a utility trailer with house trailer axles, the bearing sizes are 1 1/4inch outer and 1 3/8 inner. Is there a hub to convert these to a standard rim?

Mobile home axles are designed as one time use axles. They usually have odd spindle sizes on them that make them incompatible with standard trailer hubs.
The only recommendation I could make for you would be to install new axles on your trailer.
I attached a page that has all of the axles we have with the correct hubs included. You will need to select the capacity you need from the facets on the left, followed by selecting the overall length axle you want from hub face to hub face, then select the distance between the leaf springs you need, and then finally the bolt pattern hubs you want to match your trailer wheels.
I also attached a link to page that has all of your trailer wheels and tires.
