Have a 1986 Martinique Trailer. Long story short, dropped a wheel off. Spindle looks good. I can probably source all the individual components. But it's often cheaper to buy the Hub Assembly complete. Does anyone know if this may have been a Dexter, Kodiak or CE Smith or some other standard?

You can knock new bearing races into the old hub in less than a half hour, bearings and a new seal don't cost much compared to a complete hub assembly. All Bearings have a industry standard part number stamped into them. If you take yours out you can match exactly what you have by these numbers, there will be one part number on both parts, the bearings and the race. The seals can be matched if you measure the Outside diameter of the shaft where the seal rides and the inside diameter of the hub where the seal seats. Sometimes you get lucky and a part # can be read on the seal also.

Should be standard 5200lb axle stuff- hubs and bearings tend to be standard trailer industry stuff, not manufacturer specific.

Thanks for the replies. I was able to source the parts at NAPA. However, they didn't have the hubs or studs. Going to clean up what I have and if the hubs and studs are too iffy, I'm probably off to ETrailer.

Generally Hubs and Studs don’t fail unless you are in the rust belt.
