How to Determine Whi...

• Material Used and Tensile Strength of TruRyde Spindle # TRU84FR
  According to TruRyde, the bar stock material used on spindles like # TRU84FR is SAE 1045 hot rolled. This allows the spindle to harden to an extent, but it is a medium tensile steel with a tensile strength of 570-700 MPa and Brinell hardness ranging between 170 and 210. The spindle is designed to retain a slight amount of flex to retain its durability when a trailer goes over a bump or through a hole in the road. TruRyde Spindle # TRU84FR is rated for use on 3,500 lb axles.

• Replacement Axle for a 1991 Lowe Boat Trailer
  None of the spindles we carry have the same measurements as what you have. The only real recommendation I could make would be to replace the axle since by the time you buy the spindles, have them professionally installed and get the correct hubs you're almost at the same price as just getting a new axle. In order to recommend an axle assembly for you, I'll need some more information. First, you will need to ensure that the existing wheels and tires you are using are rated for the extra...

• Welding #84 Spindles # TRU84FR and # TRU57FR for Utility Trailer with 2-3/8 inch O.D. Pipe
  You have a 2-3/8 inch O.D. pipe so you might want to look at #84 Spindle, # TRU84FR, which has a 2 inch O.D. at the weld point and has a 1750 lb. capacity, so two spindles will give that axle 3,500 lb capacity. The #42 Spindle, TRU57FR which has a 2.25 inch O.D. at the weld point and is rated for 5,200 lbs to 7,000 lbs axles. The total capacities of the spindles are only valid if installed correctly and the axles are not broken or damaged in any way. The TruRyde #84 Spindle, # TRU47FR,...

• What Size of Spindle is Needed for a 3,500-Lb Axle
  I have three spindles that are for a 3,500-lb axle and have the bearing dimensions you have listed. The only difference is the dimension for the grease seal is 1.75 inches, not the 1.795 inches that you have mentioned. Maybe you typed in the seal diameter wrong. The hub number you have mentioned is just a casting number, not a part number. The three spindles I have for a 3,500-lb axle are as follows. #84 Spindle - 1-3/4" Diameter (8-1/4" OAL) # TRU64FR #84 E-Z Lube Spindle w/ Brake Flange...

• How to Grease Trailer Bearings and Spindle without EZ Lube Axle and Spindle
  If you don't have an EZ-Lube spindle on your axle then you'll need to remove the hub, remove and repack the bearings, races and seals manually. Standard trailer bearings should be re-packed and greased every 10,000 to 12,000 miles in normal towing conditions; if you're routinely towing at maximum load or live in an extremely warm and dry area it might be less than that. This will be the only way to properly grease the bearings and spindle to perform this routine maintenance. If you don't...

• 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...

• Identifying Nature of Damage to Trailer Spindle
  Thank you for providing the clear photo of your trailer spindle. Based on the picture it appears that the race for the inner bearing is still stuck on the spindle and shows some signs of scoring damage. Perhaps the inner bearing was damaged and the heat created caused the race to become fused to the spindle. I do not recommend trying to repair this spindle. The effort needed to remove that race will likely cause more damage. It will be safer to replace the spindle. Spindles should be...

• Finding the Correct Spindle Size for Hub
  From what I could find about your hub, you need the #84 spindle like # TRU84FR which is a round spindle. A more accurate way to figure out the needed spindle size is to first find out the measurements of your bearings. You can also measure the spindles on your damaged axle and match them to the inner diameter of the bearings that fit a #84 spindle. The matching bearing kit is Bearing Kit for #84 Spindle # BK2-100. This matches L44649/L68149 Bearings which is what I believe your hub uses,...

• Recommendation of Trailer Hub and Drums and Axles
  The trailer hub and drum assembly # 845476UC3 includes bearings and races from Redline. They are made in China. I would assume you have 5 on 4-3/4 inch bolt pattern but you will need to replace the spindle. Welding on a new spindle is a precision trade craft requiring a special jig installed by an experienced professional. Otherwise, you could continue having the same problem. Depending on the overall length and if you currently have a round or square, that will determine which spindle...

  The Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3,500 lbs # AKEBRK-35 has a mounting pattern that is typical for 3,500 lb axles.

• Distance From End of TruRyde #84 Spindle Stub to the Back of an Installed Hub
  When installing a hub like the # AKIHUB-545-35-K on the # TRU84FR the hub is going to stop where the grease seal sits. If you look at the attached picture below, you will see the measurement marked F which is 6-1/2". This would be the stub length, which is the same as the distance from the end to the back of the hub. If you are talking about the other end, the distance would be the overall spindle length of 11-1/4" minus F, which would be 4-3/4".

• Replacement Hub for Trailer With Timken 158123 Inner and 09067 Outer Bearing
  I looked through our selection of hubs and hub/drums, and couldn't find anything compatible with the bearings you mentioned. This leaves you with two alternatives.
