• Idler Hub for Trailer Axle with 1-1/16 Inch and 3/4 Inch Tapered Spindle
  I do have an option for you but we do not offer any trailer hubs with bearings that match the dimensions you provided.

• What Size Axle Does a #84 Spindle Fit
  A true 1 inch spindle is a BT8 spindle, like # TRU94FR. The next closest one would be the BTR spindle which is commonly referred to as a 1-1/16 inch spindle, like # TRU44FR and is more common than the BT8. Both of these are typically used with 2,000 lb axles. A #84 spindle, like # TRU24FR or # TRU47FR is bigger and is used for 3,500 lb axles. Common sizes for these are 2-3/8 inch round axle, 3 inch round axle, and 2 inch square axle. I have linked a helpful page that shows the different...

  If you give me the tapered spindle measurements like in the attached photo, I can help you get the replacement hubs you need.

The only other thing I will need is bolt pattern and whether you want idler hubs, drum brakes, or disc rotors. I've attached an article to assist with bolt pattern to match your wheels.

• Availability of Spindle that Would Fit Square Tube Axle
  New spindles should be welded on only by a professional welder who has experience and the correct jigs for installing spindles perfectly straight and concentric. If not installed correctly the trailer may not track properly and uneven tire wear can occur. It might be more trouble than it's worth to try and fit a round spindle like the part # TRU24FR in a square tube axle by trimming it. We have a square version of this spindle as part # TRU47FR.

• Replacement 5 On 5 Idler Hub For Homemade Trailer
  I have a couple options for your consideration as we do not have a replacement hub or bolt on spindle that will fit your combination.

• Recommended Spindles And Hubs For Trailer With 6 on 5-1/2 Inch Wheels
  The sizes you gave line up with Timken bearings and races, however they are not compatible with standard size hubs and spindles. I recommend changing out your spindles for more long term options and compatibility. This will require a professional welder, but is a better long term option to have standard spindles. You may want to consider changing out your spindles for #84 EZ Lube Spindles # TRU74FR or # TRU24FR. This will give you spindles compatible with no. 84 spindles. Then...

• Cause for Uneven Tire Tread Wear on One Tire of Tandem Axle Utility Trailer
  It sounds like your Haulmark 7 x 12-foot tandem axle enclosed utility trailer has a bent left rear spindle. This could occur from an impact with road debris or from hitting a curb with the trailer fully loaded. If both tires on the same axle showed equal wear on their inside edges then this would tend to indicate overloading of the axle, but since it is only one of the four wheels the problem is likely to be localized to that one spindle. If the spindle were to be bent upward then the...

• Determining Correct Replacement Axle For Older Axle With Obsolete L68149 LM12749 Bearing Combo
  I have a replacement axle option for you, but we do not have any hubs that will fit your spindle with the # L68149 and LM12749, and I was unable to find any replacements online. The best option is going to be replacing the axle with one that uses standard bearings to make finding replacement parts now and in the future easier. To do this you will need to take a few measurements, from hub face to hub face and and from spring center to spring center, and determine the axle weight rating. The...

• Availability Of Replacement Trailer Hubs With L44649 and LM11949 Bearing Combination
  Based on the measurements you provided of your outer bearing you have the # LM11949 which is kind of an odd-ball bearing, and as such there are no hubs that we offer that use the # L44649 and # LM11949 bearing combination. You did not mention why you need to replace the hub, but assuming there is no excessive damage then your best bet is going to be replacing the bearings with # LM11949, and # L44649, and the races with # L44610 and # LM11910 to refurbish the hub. If it is damaged...

  There is an option very, very similar to the #84 Spindle for 3,500 lb Trailer Axles - 2" Diameter # TRU24FR that includes a brake mounting flange, though not exactly the same.

• Is Redline Trailer # 84 Spindle a Fit for Dexter 8-247 Drums
  You are correct that the TruRyde #84 Spindle, like part # TRU24FR, which you reference, is a fit for your Dexter trailer hub and drum, part # 8-247-50. Please note the spindle has a 1750 lbs. capacity, so two spindles will give your axle a 3500 lbs. capacity.

• What Hubs Will Fit Redline 2-Inch x 4-Inch Round Spindle # TRU24FR
  The #84 spindle you reference, TruRyde # TRU24FR, is rated for use on 3500-lb axles.

• Do I Need to Replace #84 Spindle With Rust On Surface and What Bearing Kit Do I Need
  You should still be able to use your spindle without having to replace anything, especially because this is not in the seating areas for the bearings. Regardless, I recommend cleaning off the spindle with emery cloth to try to remove as much of the rust as possible. You'll want to take care to make sure that there is no pitting on the spindle that might damage the new bearings, which would be the only case that I recommend replacing the spindles. If you do end up needing to replace your...

• Replacing 10x1-1/2 Inch Brake Assemblies with 10x2-1/4 Inch Brake Assemblies
  As long as your spindles are 4.75 inches from seal to threading like # TRU24FR or # TRU57FR they are compatible. I've attached a photo to assist. You will be able to use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3,500 lbs # AKEBRK-35-SA.

The # L44610 race is commonly used with the # L68149 inner bearing while the # L68111 race is usually paired with the # L44649 outer bearing.
