E-Z Lube and Easy Grease-Compatible Assembly 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.
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.)
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.)
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"

Used an axle conversion kit to ‘flip’ the axle on my ‘08 Forrest River pop up and give it a lift. Put on the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub for 2K Axles - 13" to 15" Wheels - 5 on 4-1/2 - Pre-Greased from etrailer, then switched the 12” stock tires to Contender ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 14" Silver Mod Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range C to lift it a little more while also putting a sturdier tire on. Works great!

Though supply chain issues slowed down my original order, etrailer found a suitable substitute, and even saved me some money in the process. I don’t do a lot of work on trailers, but when I do, I know where I’ll be getting my parts.
by: Brian09/29/2022
Very pleased with the service and help I received making sure I ordered the correct hub it was very easy to install.
by: Ronald03/02/2021
Purchased for a spare hub assembly to carry in vehicle for possible bearing or seal failure during fishing trips. Much easier to get back on road versus seal and bearings replacement on road.

Excellent kit. Simply take off old hub and slide the new hub on. Comes pre-packed with what appears to be Lubrimax (green) marine grease.

Product was a great fit, easy to install if you know what you are doing. Took only 10 minutes to repack bearings and assemble.
by: Shane 07/23/2020
The hubs arrived in a timely manner and were well packaged. Etrailer was great when I contacted them with installation questions. Hubs have been installed for about a year and are working perfectly.
by: Walt08/08/2019
Received parts yesterday and everything arrived in excellent condition. Without etrailer's helpful guides it would have taken a lot longer to identify the correct Hub's and bearing's that I needed for my jet ski trailer. I always go to etrailer for my trailer needs!!!! I have a jet ski trailer, boat trailer, and 36.5 foot 5th wheel camper. So I'm always needing parts!!!
by: Riddle02/04/2017
We pack the bearings in these hubs and carry them along for spare, ready to install on the trailer if bearing goes bad while on the road. We use these trailers for trips from northern Indiana to south florida, than to Iowa. Then back to Indiana. So its a lot faster to just change the whole hub when you have trouble.
by: John 01/30/2020
Great price, good quality. This is the same hube as AKIHUB-545-2-2k, but NOT pre-assembled and pre-greased. Perfect if you want to do this work yourself or need to do work on the hubs prior to usage.

- Do Pre-Greased Trailer Hubs Require Any Greasing Prior to InstallYou are correct, the pre-greased hubs like the part # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K come ready to install without needing greasing.
view full answer... - Correct Replacement Idler Hub for Forest River Flagstaff 206LTDThe Trailer Idler Hub for 2K E-Z Lube Axles part # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K would be the correct replacement for a Forest River Flagstaff 206LTD.
view full answer... - How to Determine Correct Replacement Trailer HubI can help you determine the correct replacement hubs, though there are a few things you'll need to know in order to get the right one. First, you need to know the weight rating of your axle, and also what bearings your current hub has. You will need to take apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the grease and you should be able to see the part number stamped directly on them. If you are unable to find them, you need to use a digital caliper and...

- Pre Greased Hub that Fits 2,000 lb Trailer Axle with 14 inch WheelsYour trailer has 2,000 lb axles which is very common and also what the replacement hub part # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K that you referenced is designed to fit on. Since you have a 14 inch trailer wheel that also means the bolt pattern of this matches your wheel too. If you were to have a bearing or seal issue a pre-greased hub like this would be a very simple solution to swap onto the spindle instead of trying to replace the individual components.

This uses the inner and outer bearings that have the 1-1/16" inner diameter as well as the 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern you mentioned. Attached is a review and installation video for you to check out.
view full answer... - Recommended Hubs for Small Trailer with 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt PatternSince you provided the bolt pattern and bearing numbers we won't be needing the pictures. The hub assembly I suggest is the idler hubs # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K. These are rated for 2,000 pounds and include the bearings, races, seal, grease cap, and lug nuts. For the same kit for standard spindles instead of the E-Z Lube use # AKIHUB-545-2-LF-2K.

The hub also includes the dust cap for E-Z lube or standard spindles as well as the lug nuts. The hub has a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern which is very common. I'll link to an install video that you might find helpful..

- Replacement Hub Assembly Needed for 4,800 lb 1992 Ranger Trail Tandem Axle TrailerI have a way to help you find out what replacement hub assembly you need, but you'll need to verify some things on your end as I don't have a list of replacement parts for your trailer available. Since your 1992 Ranger Trail is a tandem axle trailer rated for 4,800 lbs this indicates that you have 2 axles rated at 2,000 lbs. For a replacement hub we have a few different options and it all depends on what bearings your trailer uses as well as what bolt pattern you have: 4 on 4" Bolt Pattern L44643...

- Difference Between Hubs Designed For 8-10 Wheels and Hubs Designed For 13-15 WheelsThe difference between a hub that fits a 8-10" wheel like part # 34822545BX and 13-15" wheels like part # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K is normally the hub diameter but that is not always the case. Some hubs are designed for larger wheels because the diameter of the idler hub is larger. Some manufacturers label their hubs to only be used with certain wheel sizes. The AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K hub that fits 13-15" wheels is 6.25" compared to Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles part...

view full answer... - Spindle and Trailer Idler Hub For 2,000LB Trailer With 15", 5 On 4-1/2" Bolt Pattern WheelsThere are two spindle sizes that are commonly used for a 2,000lb trailer axle. First is the 1" BT8 Spindle # TRU94FR that you would use with the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-1K. This hub has an outer pilot diameter of 2.47 which will allow you to use your 15" wheels that have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and 2.56" pilot hole diameter. The next is the 1-1/6" BTR Spindle # TRU44FR that will need the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K. This also...
view full answer... - Replacement Hub For BTR E-Z Lube Straight SpindleFor your axle with an BTR E-Z Lube Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles # TRU44FR, you'll want to use the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub for 2K Axles # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K. This hub assembly fits 2,000-lb Dexter E-Z Lube and etrailer Easy Grease trailer axles with BTR spindles, with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern.
view full answer... - Replacement Bearing Kit and 5 on 4-1/2 Inch Bolt Pattern Idler Hub for 1-1/16 Inch Diameter SpindleThank you for the information. I was able to confirm with my contact at Dexter Axle that your spindle does have the 1-1/16" diameter so you would need the equivalent of 2 of the 031-031-02 bearings and 1 of the 010-060-00 seals for each hub. This means the replacement bearing kit # BK1-150 is what you'd need for your axle so for a replacement hub you need the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub for 2K Axles - 13" to 15" Wheels - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K. Attached is an...

This new spindle will place the grease fitting on the end of the spindle allowing you to grease the bearings through the spindle. We have a few hubs for you to choose from based on your wheels and tires. 5 On 4-1/2" Idler Hub For 13"-15" Wheels # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K 5 On 4-1/2" Idler Hub For 10"-12" Wheels # AKIHUB-545-2-EZ-2K 4...

They fit onto a BTR spindle which uses # L44649 for both the inner and outer bearings which have an inner diameter of 1.063 inches. If any of this doesn't match what you have let me know. If you just need the idler hubs and not the hub and drum assemblies we have # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K that are for E-Z Lube spindles. Or use # AKIHUB-545-2-LF-2K for standard spindles. If your spindles have a zerk fitting on the end of them then...

This is a 2,000 lb axle, though the spring centers measure 48 inches. What you can do though is have new springs welded on at the location you need with Spring Seat # TRSS175. This axle is the Trailer Idler Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles - 60" Long - 2,000 lbs # e48GR.

We do offer hubs compatible with the # CE33201GA axle. For a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern, I'd recommend going with part # AKIHUB-545-2-LFEZ-2K or for a 4 on 4 bolt pattern, use # AKIHUB-440-2-EZ-2K. If you'd prefer galvanized hubs for greater corrosion resistance, use # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-2K for a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern or # AKIHUB-440-2-G-EZ-2K...

The only difference is the grease cap that comes with the EZ-Lube hub, # DC200L-DCRP, has a removable rubber plug, designed for easy access to the grease fitting on an EZ-Lube Spindle.
