Hey Experts,
Any numbers on a 1986 Correct Craft bearings? I seem to recall having to get them from Woodie in Orlando for my 89. Can they be sourced at NAPA?

Click on the link below and you'll have some reading to keep you busy.


Then you might decide that the best thing to do would be to pull one hub off and see exactly what you have, just to be sure, to avoid any "oops I got the wrong bearings" issues Wink

Or you might see a good description of what you have for hubs and go with that.

Got it. We will pull the parts and bring the hub and simply go to the local trailer guy who has always steered me right. He is a little pricey, but he knows CC trailers.

All Bearings have SAE numbers on them which identify the size and type.  The seals can be more difficult to identify.   Write down your numbers when you find them and keep them for future use.   Most trailers use very common automotive bearings so they are easy to locate at most parts stores but you have to have the numbers.   Both the bearing race and the rollers have numbers so you need both numbers.   They will probably identify as a set number like, A2 or A4 set for the outer and maybe an A13 for the inner but you have to verify.  A set has both the race and roller but each has a number to identify it.
To identify the seal you need measurements.   Housing bore size on your hub, Shaft size on your axle at the seal surface and depth or width, how wide can the seal be.  Usually .500 inch or less.   
Seal fit is important, I worked on one trailer where the guy used the wrong size seal, it did not even touch the axle shaft so as they filled the bearing buddy it pumped grease right into the brakes.  What a mess to fix.  
Once you get your  proper numbers keep them and the next change is a snap.
A good trailer guy will just glance at your parts and hand you new ones if you find the right guy.
