Came as ordered, easy tracking will use etrailer again.

The part is just what we needed. I would ask for better packing to assure parts don't get lost in shipping. I would also ask that there be a packing list included in the box for the receiving team to identify PO it belongs to.
by: Mike10/17/2023
Product was received as ordered. The box with the hubs and spindles was soaking wet and product was exposed. One of the boxes with tire and rim was torn open on the back. No apparent damage to any of the product. Typical UPS delivery.
by: Keven09/27/2023
great price and they are working good. the unmachined side is about .015" over size so if your going to weld this in DOM tubing you need to grind or machine a little. Works really well, nice machine work on them
by: Jose09/17/2023
The products don’t have any damage at all. We need to return it because they are the wrong size. Can you please let me know what do I have to do? Thanks

See what our Experts say about this TruRyde Trailer Spindles
- What Size Spindle is Needed for a M/H trailerThe axle spindle you need to order will depend on the weight capacity of your trailer and on the type of spindle (see link) already being used, if you only need to replace one spindle. To figure out which spindle is correct you can use the bearing part numbers, both inner and outer, and the shape and length of the spindle stub on your trailer. The bearing numbers will let you cross reference the correct spindle measurements for your hub. The axle stub shape and length will allow you to...
view full answer... - Replacement Spindle for 6,000 Pound AxleThe spindle where your grease seal sits should be smooth as you mentioned. It looks like a bearing probably blew on your hub to cause that type of damage on the spindle. Your only option will be to replace the spindle or the entire axle. If you have a 6,000 pound axle, the spindle we have available is the TruRyde # TRU57FR. This spindle uses the # 25580 inner bearing and # 14125A outer bearing so you will want to make sure this matches up to your current hubs. Just note that the replacement...

- What Bearing Kit Fits the Trailer Spindle part TRU57FRFor a bearing kit that fits the #42 spindle part # TRU57FR that you referenced you would want the part # BK3-300.
view full answer... - Recommendation For Spindles That Go With Dexter Trailer Idler Hub For 5,200-lb And 6,000-lb AxlesYes, we do. For the Dexter Idler Hub Assembly, Item # 8-213-5UC1, you can use spindle, Item # TRU57FR. If you are open to shifting to an EZ-Lube option, you could get a Dexter Idler Hub Assembly, Item # 8-213-5UC1-EZ, and TruRyde EZ Lube Spindle, Item # TRU37FR. Both spindles also work with inner bearings like Item # 25580 and outer bearings like Item # LM67048. When you change your spindles, be sure to have a professional welder that knows about trailers do the work so that they...
view full answer... - Which Spindle Do I Need To Use with 8 on 6-1/2 Drum and Hub Assembly part # 8-219-4UC3I cross referenced the bearings that Trailer Hub & Drum Assembly - 5,200, 6,000, 7,000 lbs. Axles - 8 on 6-1/2, PART # 8-219-4UC3, uses to determine which spindle you will need. The correct spindle you will need is EZ Lube Spindle, part # TRU37FR.
view full answer... - Compatibility of TRU67FR Spindle and Dexter 42655UC1 Idler HubWe carry the # AS6000F spindle as part # TRU67FR. The spindle and the # 42655UC1 hub you mentioned aren't compatible. If you wanted to use the # TRU67FR (AS6000F) spindle, you'd need to use the compatible hub which is part # AH60880FCOMP. This is an agricultural hub which isn't meant for higher speed road use, and has an 8 on 8 bolt pattern which is pretty much relegated to farm equipment. If you need a spindle that's compatible with the # 42655UC1 hub, which has a more commonly used...
view full answer... - Spindle, Brake Flange, Hub, & Electric Brakes For Custom 5,200 lb AxleWe can get you all set up with the correct parts you need for your custom 5,200 lb axle, including the spindle, flange, hub, and electric brakes. Since you want to use electric brakes you'll need a hub and drum assembly, and it will need to be a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern as there aren't any with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern for that capacity. Here is the list of everything you will need: - #42 Spindle for 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb Trailer Axles # TRU57FR - Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 5,200-lb...
view full answer... - How to Remove a Hub From a Trailer SpindleTo remove a hub from an axle, you will need to first remove the grease cap on the end of the hub. This will expose the end of the spindle. Once at this point, you will need to see if you have an EZ-Lube spindle, like # TRU77FR, or a standard spindle, like # TRU57FR. If you have the standard spindle, there will be a castle nut threaded onto the end of said spindle that is locking a fairly large washer in place. This will be locked in place by a cotter pin, like # 165649. These will all...
view full answer... - Trailer Spindle, Hub and Drum, and Electric Brakes for a Fabricated Utility Reel TrailerSpindle # TRU37FR is the highest capacity spindle we have at 2600 pounds. It is a 2-1/4 inch round stub. The part of the stub before the brake mounting flange is 3 inches but the length including the part on the other side of the flange before it tapers down to a smaller diameter would be 6 inches. Then you could use hub and drum assembly # 8-219-4UC3-EZ which does fit the spindle and it has an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern. For electric brakes you can use # 23-105 for the left and # 23-106...

- Replacement Hub and Spindle For Trailer Using Tapered Spindle With Timken 24780 and 10183 BearingsI do have a recommendation for you as we do not carry a hub which will work with your current spindle. Instead you can replace your spindles with the more commonly found #42 Spindle # TRU57FR. This will allow you to easily slide on a hub for a 6 on 5-1/2" Bolt Pattern # AKIHUB-655-6-K or one with the 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern # AKIHUB-865-7-2-K. Both these hubs include pre packed bearings, races and grease seals for easy installation.
view full answer... - Capacity of Trailer Axle Spindles # TRU57FR and # TRU34FRThe only capacities we have for the two spindles you mentioned is the capacity of them if they are used as they are intended on a trailer axle. The part # TRU34FR is for a 3,000 lb axle so it has a 1,500 lb capacity and the # TRU57FR is intended for a 5,000 lb axle so it has a 2,500 lb capacity.
view full answer... - Ford F-350 Dummy Tag Axle Using Timbren Trailer Axle with #42 Spindle and 8 on 6-1/2 hubHere is what I would recommend. While all your options would require a lot of modification, the Timbren ASR400S02 only offers 1" of deflection (suspension travel) which would more than likely be easily damaged when driven. I would say to use the Timbren # ASR1THDS01. It offers the most deflection of 3-3/8". That should limit the chance of damage when the main suspension does travel. Timbren doesn't offer any #42 spindles for for this particular item. I recommend having #42 Spindle # TRU57FR...
view full answer... - Can Hub # 42660UC1 Be Converted To Fit a Spindle # TRU57FR? You are either going to get a different Spindle # TRU57FR or Hub # AH60880FCOMP as there is not a set of bearings and races we carry to make the Hub # 42660UC1 fit on the Spindle # TRU67FR. Since you most likely already have the 6 on 6" wheels and tires it makes the most sense to change to the Spindle # TRU57FR and keep the Hub # 42660UC1.
view full answer... - Which Trailer Hub Works With the #42 TruRyde Spindle Part # TRU57FRI do have an option for you but there is not a trailer hub available that will work with the #42 TruRyde Spindle part # TRU57FR and allow for you to use a wheel with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern like the Loadstar ST205/75D14 Bias Trailer Tire with 14" Galvanized Wheel part # AM3S450. Therefore, you will need to choose a new wheel/tire to work with the trailer hubs that we do have available for this spindle which use a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern. For a new wheel/tire with a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt...
view full answer... - What Hubs Fit Spindle # TRU57FRThe spindle part # TRU57FR would fit idler hubs like part # 42655UC1 or brake/drums like part # 8-201-51UC3-EZ. Both of these have a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. I attached a link to a page that has hubs that fit this spindle for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Compatibility of AKHD-655-6-K with TRU57FR # 42 SpindlesThe # TRU57FR spindle and # AKHD-655-6-K hub you mentioned are indeed compatible with each other. If you purchase the # AKHD-655-6-K hub, the 25580 and 15123 bearings, races, GS2250DL grease seal, grease cap, and lug nuts are included, so you wouldn't need to pick up the # BK3-100 bearing kit unless you wanted to have some spare parts on hand.
view full answer... - Replacement Axle Assembly for 6,000 lb Torsion Axle Bend Spindle on 2012 ATC Car Hauler TrailerIf just the spindle is bent, we have the #42 Spindle for 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb Trailer Axles - 2-1/4" Diameter # TRU57FR as a replacement. If you have more than a bent spindle then the other option is to replace your entire axle. Because you don't have the hangers and leaf springs for a thru-axle replacement, the best option we have is to replace your axle with the slightly higher capacity Timbren Axle-less system. I recommend using the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System -...
view full answer... - Spindle and Hub for 6,000 Pound AxleYou will want part # TRU57FR for your standard spindle that is compatible with the hub # AKIHUB-655-6-K you mentioned. Another option is # TRU67FR which is an agricultural spindle to fit the 6k capacity. The hub compatible with this spindle is the # AH60880FCOMP.
view full answer... - Recommended Hubs and Spindles for 2500 lb Homemade TrailerThe first thing to determine is if you want an idler hub or a hub/drum. The weight threshold at which brakes are mandated varies by state, so you might want to check that with your state police or highway patrol. If you decide on an idler hub (no brakes), I'd recommend the # 42655UC1 hub from Dexter Axle. The bearings, races, grease seal, lug bolts and grease cap are included. The hub will have more than enough capacity for your application. This hub would use the # TRU57FR spindle. For...

The Dexter Trailer Idler Hub # 84545BX that you referenced includes inner bearing # L68149 and outer bearing # L44649. The inner diameters of these bearings must match up to the spindle dimensions for them to be compatible. Inner bearing # L68149 has an inner diameter of 1.378-inches. The TruRyde #42 spindle # TRU57FR that you referenced has a diameter at the point where the inner bearing rides of 1.74...
