Stock trailer needs bearings. Anyone know where I would have the best chance finding them? Size?

I got mine at Advanced Auto, you can find those anywhere. I took one of the old bearings down there and matched them, believe its a very common size.

Forgot to mention I'll need the hub too. I had a little problem on the way home. The axle wasted the hub but hopefully the axle is alright. I guess I'll have to slip the bearings on to find out.

I get stuff like that at Agri Supply. It's a chain of stores for farmers, they have axles, springs, wheels and hubs cheap.

Ok so my inner bearings are apparently MUCH larger than the outer ones. I bought the 1 1/16" kit from tractor supply and the bolt pattern fits the wheel, the outer bearings are fine, but the inner ones look like they would be 1 3/4" or something. Anyone? Also, my axle is hammered and I'll need a new one. Any ideas? I'm NOT happy right now

Believe it or not, I saw a package of trailer wheel bearings hanging on a peg in the boat trailer accessory aisle at WalMart. I have no clue as to the size required but I imagine there are only a couple of "standard" sizes.

I found the right bearings and hub at a local boat shop. Now I have to file the melted metal off of the axle to fit them on. Turning into a project in itself to get this thing to the water
