Determining the Bolt Pattern

The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.


Bolt Pattern - Even

On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: "8 on 6-1/2" means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)


Bolt Pattern - Odd

To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: "5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)


Bolt Pattern Side

Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

  • If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
  • If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
  • If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
  • If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

  • What Hubs do I Need for My 1998 Calkins Boat Trailer?
    If both of your inner and outer bearings are # L44649, you most likely have a 2K axle. Depending on your bolt pattern, I recommend the following hubs: - Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles # AKIHUB-545-2-G-2K (5 on 4-1/2 pattern) - Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles - 4 on 4 # 8-91-05UC1 (4 on 4 pattern) If you need the hub/drum combination, I recommend the following: - Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 2K Axles - 7" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 # AKHD-545-2-2K (5...

  • Needing Dexter Hub # 8-91A
    The hub that you are looking for comes in the Trailer Hub Assembly # 8-91-05UC1 on our site. For the E-Z Lube version you would instead want the Trailer Hub Assembly # 8-91-05UC1-EZ. I contacted Dexter Axle and confirmed that these were the correct hubs for the 8-91A hub you are looking to purchase.

  • Replacement Dexter Hub for 8-91A Hub
    If the hub that was on your trailer axle previously had 8-91A stamped on the back of it your spindle should require inner and outer bearings of # L44649 like you used. The part # 8-91-05UC1 SHOULD be an exact replacement. However we need to double check your grease seal measurement. Double check to make sure you don't have a 1.5 inner diameter seal with outer diameter of 1.9. You can also measure the spindle where the seal rides as well. The seal dimensions you mentioned are not ones...

  • How to Determine Correct Hub Replacement for 1994 Jayco Eagle SD with Dexter Axle
    I'm happy to help find a hub replacement for your Jayco Eagle, but in order to find the correct one, I'll need to know the inner and outer bearing numbers as well as the grease seal inner and outer diameter. You could alternatively use a digital caliper # PTW80157 to measure the portion of the spindle on which each component rides. From your photos it appears your wheel bolt pattern is a 4 on 4, but you'll want to confirm that just to be sure. Below are a couple diagrams to help.

  • Recommended Replacement Hub for Dexter 8-91A
    I reached out to my contact at Dexter regarding the numbers you gave. They couldn't match anything and suggested that you most likely have a 8-91A, which is a 4 on 4 bolt pattern. That is a very basic trailer hub assembly and the replacement part is # 8-91-05UC1. This assembly comes with the L44643 bearings, the grease seal, the lugs and the grease cap. I'd suggest a bearing packer like # PTW1218 and the Industrial Strength Grease # L11390.

  • Do You Have Something Similar to a 8-91A Hub in a 5 Lug Pattern Instead of 4 on 4?
    Hello Ryan, How about a 5 on 4 1/2 bolt pattern? I looked up the specs on the 8-91A and it has both L44649 for the inner and outer bearing. I do not have any hubs in a 5 on 5, or 5 on 5.5" like you requested, but we do have them in a 5 on 4 1/2" which now a days is an extremely common bolt pattern. Our Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2K Axles # AKIHUB-545-2-LF-2K will work great just as long as your wheels are 13-15", for EZ lube spindle you want # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K. If your wheels are...

  • Correct Replacement Hub for a Trailer with Dexter L44649 Bearings
    In order to determine which is the correct hub for your trailer you will need to take some measurements of the spindle using dial or digital calipers for the most accurate measurement. I have included a picture that shows what measurements are needed. The difference between bearing L44649 and L44643 is only 0.063 inches but for bearings, it is critical to get the correct size. This is also why you cannot measure using a ruler or tape measure. It has to be dial or digital calipers.

  • 4 on 4 inch Bolt Pattern Hub Recommendation to Fit Trailer Spindle R104BT8
    Yes, the trailer hub part # 8-91-05UC1 does fit the spindle part # R104BT8. This hub is a 2,000 lb rated hub that has a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern. For a coupler for your trailer that would take a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball you would want the part # E112000340. I attached a link to a page that has all of the 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern wheels we carry. Without knowing what size you are looking for it's hard to say for sure what would be your best option.

  • Dexter Torflex #9 1000-2200 lbs Axle Hub and Bearing Kit Replacements
    The current hub for your Torflex #9 axle uses the inner and outer bearings # L44649 with a grease seal that has a 1.500" inner diameter. You can find the bearing kit as part # BK1-150 on our site. For a replacement hub we have the part # 8-91-05UC1 for a standard spindle or part # 8-91-05UC1-EZ for E-Z Lube spindles. If you have brakes then you would want part # 8-173-16UC3 for a standard spindle or part # 8-173-16UC3-EZ for E-Z Lube spindles. All of these hub kits come with bearings and...

  • Trailer Hub Compatible with Caliper Measurement for Camping Trailer Axle
    Based on your photo it does appear you have the BTR spindle that takes the 1.063 inch inner bearings. The fact that it isn't a digital caliper with the precision of that thousandth does leave slight ambiguity but I am still confident you will want the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # 8-91-05UC1. You will not need the # 8-91-05UC1-EZ you asked about because you don't have the grease zerk in your spindles. To confirm fit, I recommend putting your caliper on the grease seal location...

  • Replacement for Dexter 8-91A Hub
    I did some research and there is no direct replacement for your hub due to how old it is. So in order to find the correct replacement, you will need to know the bearing numbers of your current hub because the information you gave is irrelevant. If you are unable to find them, you would need to use a digital caliper such as # PTW80157 and measure your spindle to the thousandths of an inch where the bearings ride. You can use the photo I've attached to see exactly where you need to measure. There...

  • Replacement Trailer Idler Hub For Dexter 8-91A Hub With 4 on 4" Lug Pattern
    You will need either the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # 8-91-05UC1 that fits standard axles, or the Dexter E-Z Lube Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # 8-91-05UC1-EZ that fits axles that have the E-Z lube grease. Both hubs will include all new bearings, races, lug nuts, a grease cap and a grease seal. I recommend using LubriMatic LMX Industrial Strength Grease # L11390 to fill the bearings and the hubs thanks to its superior wear resistance in both hot and cold climates.

  • Recommended Trailer Idler Hub Assembly To Replace 8-91A Dexter Hubs With L44643 Bearings
    The Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # 8-91-05UC1 comes with the Bearings # L44649. You do have the option to order 2 of the Trailer Hub Bearing # L44643 and simply use these when you install the hub as they both use the same size Race # L44610. I would recommend using the etrailer Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-440-2-G-1K as it already has all the correct parts for your axle.

  • Looking for Galvanized 4 Lug Trailer Hub Compatible w/ # T20BTR-6048 Dexter Trailer Axle
    The # T20BTR-6048 Dexter 2K axle you referred to is compatible with a L44649 inner and outer wheel bearing. The # 8-91-05UC1 hub assembly has a 4-on-4 bolt pattern and uses the L44649 bearings. A galvanized version isn't offered, but there's one available in a 5 lug on 4-1/2 bolt circle, part # 8-259-50UC1 for 8-12 inch wheels or # 8-258-50UC1 for 13-15 inch wheels.

  • What is Difference between Trailer Hubs 8-91-05UC1-EZ and 8-91-05UC1
    The difference is the dust cover/cap that is on either hub. The part # 8-91-05UC1-EZ comes with a dust cover that has a removable rubber plug that allows you to access the a zerk fitting to grease ez lube spindles. Whereas the part # 8-91-05UC1 comes with a solid cover without the removable plug. Other than that they are totally identical.

  • Does a Trailer Wheel Center Hole and a Hub Bore have to Match
    The expert answer you have referenced is correct. A wheel that secures to the hub using bolts instead of lug nuts actually centers on the hub so the pilot hole of the wheel has to be exact. If it is too large the wheel can easily be off center and lead to all sorts of problems. Hub # 8-91-05UC1 has a center bore outer diameter of approximately 2.4375 inches; very close to 2.5 inches but not quite. If you use this hub and the wheels you are using have a pilot hole that is larger, it will...

  • What Hub Would Fit Spindle that Has Dimensions of 1 inch and Tapers to 1.25 inches
    Most likely you have a BT8 spindle as that spindle has a .99 inch diameter where the bearings ride and then 1.25 inch where the seal rides. Can you see where the bearings ride and where the seal rides? Dexter Trailer Hub Assembly, # 8-91-05UC1 is compatible with BT8 spindles like what you most likely have.

  • Can L44643 Bearings and L44649 Bearings Be Exchanged
    Yes, the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # 8-91-05UC1 will work with the bearing part # L44643 and the race part # L44610. They both have a 1.980" outer diameter which is why they are compatible with the above trailer hub. As long as your spindle has a 1" diameter where the bearing sits this option will work for you.
