I am trying to find out what replacement bearings to get for my trailer. Its a standard correct craft ski nautique single axel with no brakes trailer. Original blue hubs.. I wanted to try and get these before I take it apart. The registration for the trailer says it an "89" however the boat is an 87 2001. Replies: Posted By: Keeganino Date Posted: July-12-2011 at 1:46pm When Marty and I did the bearings on my #2 trailer we got the bearings at WAL-Mart for like $12. He works at an auto parts store and said the wallys are the same as the ones they sell but half the price. You have to figure out the OD of the spindle so you get the proper ID in the bearing and OD of the races. I am pretty sure they were 1" but don't take that to the bank. Think they only had 2 sizes though. 1" and 1 1/8" Buy em both and take back the ones you don't need. The tolerance is pretty tight so if your spindle is chewed up you will have to file down the burs to get the new bearings on. PO of mine just slapped the bigger ID bearings on one side instead of cleaning up the spindle. Lucky to still have a boat! Good luck. Fun little afternoon project. ------------- "working on these old boats may not be cost effective but as it shows its what it brings into your life that matters" -Roger http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=4897" rel="nofollow - 1973 Skier
