Pair of 3,500 lb Trailer Idler Hubs — 5×4.75 Bolt Pattern
Two-hub trailer idler hub kit for 3,500 lb axle applications using a 5×4.75 wheel bolt pattern, L68149 inner bearings, L44649 outer bearings, and 10-19 grease seals.
Overview
This R&P Carriages trailer hub kit includes two idler hub assemblies for standard 3,500 lb trailer axle applications where the bearing sizes, seal size, spindle dimensions, and 5×4.75 bolt pattern match. Each hub has races pre-installed and is supplied with the listed bearing, seal, and EZ-Lube dust cap components for service replacement or trailer hub rebuild work.
R&P Service Insight
Trailer hubs are fitment-sensitive parts. Matching the bolt pattern is only one step; the bearing numbers, seal dimensions, spindle style, and cap size all need to line up before installation.
- Bearing Match: This kit is built around L68149 inner bearings and L44649 outer bearings.
- Seal Check: The included 10-19 seal is listed as 1.719" x 2.56". Verify this against the removed seal before installing.
- Idler Hub Use: This listing is for idler hubs, not brake drum hub assemblies.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: For 3,500 lb trailer axle idler hub applications using a 5×4.75 bolt pattern, L68149 inner bearing, L44649 outer bearing, and 10-19 grease seal.
Vehicle / System Fit: Used on compatible trailer idler axle setups, including utility, cargo, boat, and similar trailer applications where all measurements match.
Installation Notes: Confirm the bearing numbers, seal inner and outer diameter, wheel bolt pattern, stud size, dust cap size, and spindle profile before ordering or installing.
Performance Insight: Correct hub fitment helps the wheel, bearings, seal, and spindle work together properly. A mismatch in bearing size, seal size, or bolt pattern can prevent safe installation.

What This Means: This listing is for an R&P Carriages trailer idler hub kit, not a guaranteed OEM-branded item unless specifically stated and verified.
Before Ordering: Verify measurements, bearing numbers, seal dimensions, bolt pattern, stud size, dust cap size, axle configuration, and included components before installation.
R&P Repair Insight
When replacing trailer hubs, the most common fitment mistakes are mixing up 5-lug bolt patterns, assuming all 3,500 lb axles use the same seal, or overlooking whether the trailer uses an idler hub or a brake drum hub.
- Bolt Pattern Check: Confirm your wheel uses the 5×4.75 bolt pattern before ordering.
- Spindle Check: Verify the inner and outer bearing IDs match your spindle before installation.
- Seal Surface Check: Inspect the spindle seal surface for wear or scoring before installing new seals.
