Question:
Which spindles would fit this hub? I have a British-made little boat trailer, which needed new wheels. I bought the wheels, but the original hub has too skinny bolts. So I bought the hubs. Now the original spindles are too short. I would like to buy the spindles, but I am not sure which would fit. Can you help me?

The Pre-Greased trailer hub # CE13110 fits on BT8 spindles such as # TRU94FR. The hub uses inner and outer bearing L44643 and a grease seal with inner diameter of 1.249 inches and outer diameter of 1.983 inches. This is exactly what you would find on a BT8 spindle.
Installing a spindle is a precision job that requires a qualified professional to install/weld onto the trailer. If there is an RV dealer with a service center near you, they could probably do the job.
