Review of Dexter Axle Trailer Hubs and Drums - Nev-R-Lube Hub with Integrated Drum - 8-388-80UC3 Video

In order to remove the hub/drum on your trailer you will want to first remove the spindle nut. Once the spindle nut is removed you are going to want to take a hammer and tap the outer portion of the drum as well as the hub face a few times to break…

Weight ratings are a little weird when it comes to hub/drum assemblies but as long as the bearings and the inner diameter of the seal (2.250") that comes with the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 6,000 lb E-Z Lube Axles #K08-201-9B matches…

I'm assuming you're turning the knob above the flame symbol to 350 degrees or higher and you're still maxing out at 225 degrees on the #FR97KR. It sounds like you don't have enough inlet pressure. I would have a professional come out…

I spoke to Dexter and they said there is a bit of a process for installing the spindle nut properly. 1. You will need to thread on the inner nut, rotate the hub, then tighten the nut to 100 foot pounds. 2. Loosen the nut to remove the torque, making…

We've checked in the past and found that the M1102 trailer that you have has a hub that has bearings #14125A and #25580 which matches hubs like the #42866UC3-EZ which has an 8 lug bolt pattern. There isn't a hub that would fit that has the 5…

The Trailer Hub & Drum Assembly #8-388-80UC3 you were looking at is designed specifically for 42mm Dexter Nev-R-Lube axles and you do not grease any of the components. This hub has sealed bearing cartridges which do not get greased. Now if you…

The difference between the standard and EZ hubs is in the grease cap. For instance, the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 3,500-lb E-Z Lube Axles #AKHD-545-35-EZ-K is the same hub, bearings, seal, and races as found in #AKHD-545-35-K but the grease cap…

Based on the question you looked at I'm going to assume your outer bearing has a 1.75" inner diameter and your inner bearing a 1.25" inner diameter. You will want to verify this information to make sure it is correct. For a hub with a 6…

You will want to use a dial caliper or micrometer to measure the inner diameter of the hub you have on your trailer to determine what size cap would be needed. Check out the picture I attached that shows this measurement being taken on a hub. I…

I may have a solution for you, but we do not have an exact replacement for the dust cover on the #AM3493. However, we do have 2 options depending on which lock dust cover you need to replace. You might be able to use the Replacement Dust Cover for…

Dexter Nev-R-Lube Bearings such as the 50MM #31-71-3 referenced in your question do not have a specific maintenance or replacement schedule. These are pre-lubricated at the factory, which will make it resistant to contamination, and sealed for life…

To upgrade to an EZ lube setup will require you to replace your axle or you could just replace the spindle. For a spindle with a 4 bolt mounting plate you would want the part #TRU74FR as it is an ez lube spindle. For a new hub/drum to fit this you…
