R&P Service Insight
Large-capacity trailer hub and drum assemblies must be matched by dimensions, not by axle rating alone. Before installation, confirm every critical fitment point against the hub being replaced.
- Hub Pilot: This kit uses a 4.88" pilot bore for hub-centric wheel mounting.
- Brake Match: Confirm the brake drum is being used with 12-1/4" x 3-1/2" brake assemblies.
- Spindle Match: Verify the inner bearing, outer bearing, and seal numbers before ordering.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: This kit is intended for compatible 10,000 lb hub-centric axle and brake configurations where the listed measurements match the original hub/drum assembly.
Vehicle / System Fit: Trailer axle hub and drum applications using electric or hydraulic brakes with a 12-1/4" drum diameter and 3-1/2" brake shoe width.
Installation Notes: Verify spindle bearing sizes, seal size, brake dimensions, bolt pattern, stud size, and hub pilot bore before installation.
