E-Z Lube and Easy Grease-Compatible Hub for Simple Lubrication

The grease cap on this hub is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube or etrailer Easy Grease axle to make lubricating bearings quick and easy. Just remove the plug on the grease cap, attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle, and inject the grease. It will flow easily to both inner and outer bearings. Not only does this make lubricating the bearings easy, but it also helps to prevent corrosion of the hub. This is because you can lubricate the bearings without the mess of taking apart the entire assembly.


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"

Working good so far, I have only put about 250 miles on them.

Still going strong after several hundreds of miles



by:

Some very slight deformation to one of the bearing race rings, but will not interfere with the function. Suggest adding some padding to protect the package of parts in with the hubs.



by:

Cost effective solution for hubs that were extremely corroded due to salt and winter driving conditions.



by:

I ordered two hub assembly kits for my boat trailer. Helen was super knowledgeable and was able to get me the perfect match for what I needed. She even made sure I had grease and new codder pins. I will definitely be using etrailer from now on. Thanks again.

  • Recommended Galvanized 2K Idler Hub with 5 on 4-1/2" Bolt Pattern
    It sounds like you're looking for the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-1K which uses 1" (L44643) bearings or part # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-2K which uses 1.063" (L44649) bearings. These are both galvanized idler hubs with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and utilize removable dust cap covers for use with easy grease spindles.

  • Replacement 5 Lug Hub Needed for Jetski Trailer
    I'm guessing your spindle is a BT8 1" straight spindle as that's the most common. If this is the case then the correct replacement bearing is part # L44643 which has a 1" inner diameter. I wasn't able to find anything with the 2305 number you gave me but you can use these measurement to see if this matches your spindle If this does match your application then I recommend going with the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2K Axles # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-1K because it has a 5 on 4-1/2"...

  • How To Find Correct Replacement Hubs/Bearings for EZ Loader EZLBW90B Trailer
    I don't have a way to look up exact parts for a specific trailer but based on some research online it looks like the trailer might have a weight carrying capacity of 2,350 lbs and in which case you likely have either a 2,000 lb or 2,200 lb axle. That said, I don't know if it uses L44643 (1") or L44649 (1.063") bearing nor do I know the lug pattern so you'll need to count the lug pattern and pull the hubs on the existing trailer to determine these last bits of info. I have attached some...

  • Correct Idler Hubs for 2013 Triton LT Single Jet Ski Trailer
    The 2013 Triton LT Single Jet Ski Trailer could use either L44643 (1") or L44649 (1.063") bearings so you'll need to pull the hubs apart to see which you need. If it's L44643 then go with the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-1K or if it's L44649 then go with the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-2K.

  • Replacement Hub w/ a 5 on 4-1/2 Lug Pattern and L44643 Inner and Outer Bearings
    Thanks for the information! If your spindle is 1" diameter that means your old hub uses inner and outer Trailer Hub Bearings item # L44643. This measurement is extremely important because the bearings are sized down to a thousandth of an inch. If you pull your hub you'll see a number stamped onto the side. If yours does not say item # L44643 you don't need the hub I am going to recommend below. For a replacement idler hub with a 5 on 4-1/2 lug pattern, I recommend the Easy Grease Trailer...

  • Replacement 5 On 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern Boat Trailer Hub for 1 Inch Spindle
    Before proceeding, I'd take a moment to confirm the spindle diameter, because there are two different bearing sets that are very close in dimension, so you'll want to be absolutely sure of the measurement you get. We recommend using a digital caliper like part # PTW80157. When dealing with specifying spindle/bearing ID dimensions a ruler or measuring tape typically won't provide enough accuracy which is why using a caliper is preferred. If your spindle measures 1 inch, your hub uses...

  • Replacement Boat Trailer Hubs with Bearing Kit and Matching Wheels and Tires
    It sounds like you have a standard 1 inch straight spindle. Because it is for a boat trailer, I recommend replacing your hubs and bearings with a galvanized hub to reduce corrosion. My recommendation is the # AKIHUB-440-2-G-EZ-1K for a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern. The # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-1K is the fit for the 5 on 4-1/2 Inch bolt pattern. I've linked the pages to the wheel and tire combinations that will work well with this bolt pattern. You will want to find the closest size to what...

  • Replacement Hub and Tire/Wheel for a 2K Boat Trailer Axle
    I do have hub and tire/wheel options for your application but unfortunately the dimensions you're needing for your boat trailer axle aren't close to standard measurements so you're looking at a custom order through your local trailer shop. With that being said, I'll go ahead and make some recommendations for hubs and tire/wheel combos so you'll be set once you get your axle. I do recommend making sure that your trailer shop gets an axle that matches the bearing and seal specs that I'm...

  • Availability Of 5 On 4-1/2 Hubs That Go On A Straight Spindle
    Your picture did not come thru, but we do offer a few hubs for a straight spindle. For example the hub # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-2K uses a # L44649 (1.063" inner diameter) for both the inner and outer bearing. It also has the 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern. This hub would use a 1.99" bearing buddy like the # BB1980A. We also have hubs like the # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-1K which use a # L44643 (1" inner diameter) inner and outer bearing. These are the only hubs we carry for a straight spindle.

  • Looking For Marine Grade Hubs For A Straight Spindle
    Hello Tucker, thanks for reaching out. We do offer 5 lug hubs that will fit a straight spindle, but I will need to know the diameter of your spindle in order to guarantee you get the correct hubs. The straight spindles are most commonly either the 1" diameter # L44643 or 1-1/16" diameter # L44649 bearing. The best way to determine which one you have will be to measure the spindle with a digital caliper. That or you can pull one of the bearings and measure the ID. We offer marine grade...

  • Can I Swap Out The 4 Lug Rims On My Pop Up Camper For 5 Lug Rims?
    It very well may be possible for you to swap out the 4 lug hubs on your pop-up for a 5 lug hub. It comes down to what size spindle/bearings are currently on the trailer. A lot of pop up campers will use a light duty axle rated for 3,500 lbs or less. For example a very common one is a 2,000 lb rated axle, which has a straight spindle and uses either the # L44643 (1" inner diameter) or the # L44649 (1.063" inner diameter) bearings. If you are able to remove one of the hubs you can measure...
