Those are the measurements you need on the spindle for the hub to fit.
Despite the fact that the hubs seem good, I was disappointed with the poor packaging of the box in which I received them. I found the hubs and bearings floating in a plastic bag with the hardware. One of the bearings was damaged in transit, but I noticed that they were the cheapest bearings I've This is not something I would put on my trailer. I ended up going to an auto parts store and purchasing quality bearings instead because I don't want to have to replace these in the future.
Here is my fault because I didn't realize the hubs didn't come with any nuts and washers. Old ones were stuck in a greasy mess, so I dug them out. As described, the 5 on 5 hub lives up to its claim. A sufficient amount of protection was provided when shipping bearings. The front brakes went on the front axle, while I added the rear brakes at the same time. The late arrival of a train always leaves a good impression. Put them in grease and you're good to.
Using this wheel hub I was able to attach the wheels on the pickup truck bed conversion to a standard trailer axle with the same bolt pattern. There was no doubt about the quality of the bearings, make sure to grease them thoroughly. It was not easy to get them to work once seated on the axle but they worked well once installed.
To ensure that I had 2 replacement hubs for my trailer, I purchased 2 of these. Everything seems to be in order for the product. I think it's awful how it's packaged, and I might get damaged parts in it. A grease seal I had to request from them had been lost and I had to call there to have it replaced.
The description states exactly what the title says.
Installation was smooth and without a hitch.
