Tie Downs brake parts are annoying at best, but their posi-lube spindles and hubs are nice. They have galvanized hubs also. Just be careful buying hubs from other manufacturers, the offset of the seal can be too far outboard so as to actually make the little grease hole in the spindle outside of the confines of where the seal rides. IN other words, when you think you are greasing the bearings through the zerk fitting on the end of the axle, you really just have a large blob of grease around the hole and just inboard of where the seal rides.(messy) Ask me how I know.. I would go all in on your bearings being two sizes. (1 1/16 outer and 1 3/8 inner) Last four trailers I owned had the same, never know til you look though.
