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 spindle selections that we offer and what size axles that they fit. But the easiest way to make sure that you get the correct spindle is to go by either your axle capacity or the bearing numbers. If you let me know what either of those are, I can make a recommendation for you.

If your existing hubs have a 5 bolt pattern and the axle features a 2,000 pound rating (both of which are the most common setups for this size spindle) then the etrailer Idler Hub # AKIHUB-545-2-2K will work perfectly. If you happen to have brakes, the hub/drum assembly is part # AKHD-545-2-2K.

@ChrisR Okay Thank you for the reply. My question is the ( stainless steel spindle sleeve) both of them are damaged from a lack of trailer care . I measured od. its 1.300 where the sleeve would be. What would be your opinion on oil seal part # The original seal number is 470050. Would it be okay to use a new seal and don't worry about that stainless steel spindle sleeve .To be honest with you i have never seen one before . I've had a lot of boat trailer's is this axle spindle a manufacturers OOPS I don't know why they used a sleeve. From my research only the 3500 axle has them . I am confused, Thank you for helping me out i really appreciate it. P.S The trailer has no brakes on trailer axle system

I agree - a spindle sleeve would be really odd for this type of axle. Are you sure it isn't the bearing race that you're seeing? Does it look like part # L44610, which would be the race for the # L44649 bearing?

Answer 1

The #84 spindle is just a common way to identify the spindle dimensions typically used for 3,500 lb axles. So instead of listing out the parts, people can just say they have #84 spindles and it's easier to know what fits it. The CE Smith Trailer…

Answer 2

Your trailer likely uses bearings #L68149 and #L44649 but you should check them to be sure. If this is the case I recommend hub and drums #AKHD-545-35-EZ-K if you have E-Z Lube axles with the zerk fitting on the spindle. If you don't have E-Z…

In order to verify the spindle dimensions so that you can pick out the correct hub/drum you have to get exact dimensions. For that you need to use a digital caliper like part #PTW80157. For how old your trailer is this is especially important as the…

Unless you want to completely clean out every bit of grease you will need to stick to a LMX red grease like item #L11390 that comes with the CE Smith Trailer Idler Hub Assembly item #CE13515. You can use your blue marine grease but you can't mix…

The CE Smith Trailer Hub Assembly #CE13511 does use the same Inner Bearing #L68149 and Outer Bearing #L44649 as the ShoreLand'r Hub 4470400. This will work as a replacement for your ShoreLand'r model 2016 LUXR2314S7MH.

Answer 8

Hey Jeremy, For stainless steel lug nuts I'd go with Lionshead's 1/2" -20 #LHLR103 or 9/16"-18 #LHLR110 depending on the diameter of your wheel studs. You could add in a hub cover but it's honestly not necessary and more so just…

Hey James, so while we don't have a picture of the #KE33JR exactly yet I attached a picture that shows what the wheel looks like in a different size to give you an idea as its most likely you wanted to just see the wheel design.

Answer 10

The short answer is Yes, bearing #15123 is slightly larger and stronger than #LM67048 and they use different races which means they are not interchangeable. Bearing 15123 uses race #15245 which has an outer diameter of 2.441 inches and bearing…

There actually is no real difference. They have the same dimensions, fit the same applications, and are both double lip seals. Our part number for the 10-36 is the #RG06-070.
