Replacement Hub that Has Bearings L44649 and Bolt Pattern 5 on 4-1/2 inch
Question:
It appears part # 8-258-5UC1 has a grease seal I.D. of 1.5. the one I took off is old part # AB1990E, translates too part # 13194 with the I.D. 1.372. will 1.5 be too big? Regarding the upgrade to a 3.5 axle. It is approximately 79inch from pin to pin, measuring across the axle to the spring pin. It is approx 89inch from hub face to hub face. The spring length Im not sure if measuring the bow in the spring is necessary but I will give you two measurements 1. Across the frame from slide bracket to center of the bolt is approximately 25inch and actual bow of spring is approximately 29 I hope this helps

Expert Reply:
The trailer hub part # 8-258-5UC1 that you referenced is an exact fit for the spindle you have on your trailer based on the bearing numbers you listed and the wheel bolt pattern.
To jump up to a 3,500 lb axle would require more info from you. I'd need spring seat center to spring seat center plus hub face to hub face off your old axles. You have slipper springs which we can help with that as well. How long are the springs you have now?
