Re: trailer bearings / tires
In doing that you can keep one hub with bearings and a spare tire for long road trips. It's easier to replace the whole thing when on the road if you had problems.

Re: trailer bearings / tires
SEAN. You are aware that there are different spindle sizes and different tapers (or not) when it comes to axles? For instance the normal light weight axle might carry a straight 1" spindle or a dual axle trailer might carry a 1 1/16 - 1 3/8 taper spindle. Or if you want even more odd my trailer for the V-20 carries a 1 1/4 - 3/4 step taper spindle. There are a lot of combinations between different manufacturers, If you're not sure about the size the easiest way is to purchase a 4" caliper and measure the spindle at the inner and outer bearing.

Re: trailer bearings / tires
:o I actually bought the exact same model # as the current ones I have. I think it has a 1 3/4 spindle ???
But as you can tell from this thread, it will probably be wrong!! They are supposed to be delivered 05/02 and I have a splash dow date of the 3rd!! Thanks for the heads up, and wish me luck :'(

Re: trailer bearings / tires
Know you have me worried, this is the exact one I got:
http://www2.northerntool.com/product-1/200333678.htm My axel is tapered (forgive my ignorance but I assume that means it starts off around 1 3/4 and comes to a rounded point?), but this one as well as my current one both have the 1 3/4 diameter. Please lye to me if you must and tell me I am all set ;D ;D Positive thinking!!! 8) Thanks again! Yes 200, I M ON MY WAY!~!!

Re: trailer bearings / tires
Well apparently retardation has set in on me. I was trying to post a picture from Harbor Freight on a cheap caliper to use, anyway see what comes in from Northern Tool.

Re: trailer bearings / tires
That hub kit worries me for two reasons..."complete w/ spindle"...how does one generally change out a spindle?...
the other thing is that kit says rated at 1750 lbs...two of those only allow you 3500 lbs...is your trailer single axle or tandem??...if single, yer not gettin' enough hardware for the load yer totin' ;) ...
