Overview
This Dexter 4400 lb hub drum kit is built around the 008-407-05 hub/drum for compatible Dexter D44 trailer axle applications. The kit includes the hub/drum, grease seal, grease dust cap, one L68149 bearing, one LM67048 bearing, six coned lug nuts, and spindle hardware shown in the kit BOM. It is intended for repair or replacement work where the trailer’s existing hub, spindle, brake size, bolt pattern, and bearing combination match this kit.
R&P Service Insight
Hub and drum fitment must be checked from the existing parts, not only from the trailer’s axle rating. Many trailer hub assemblies look similar, but the bearing combination, seal size, brake size, and spindle hardware determine whether the kit is correct.
- Bearing Check: Confirm the trailer uses one L68149 bearing and one LM67048 bearing.
- Brake Check: Confirm the brake assembly is 10" x 2.25".
- Bolt Pattern Check: Confirm the wheel bolt pattern is 6 on 5.5" before ordering.
R&P Knowledge Hub

Vehicle / System Fit: Trailer axle hub/drum service position using a 6 on 5.5" wheel pattern and 10" x 2.25" brake setup.
