Thank you for that info and we have everything you need. An 8-247 hub and drum, which is the same as Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 84546UC3 uses Inner Bearing # L68149, Outer Bearing # L44649, Inner Race # L68111, Outer Race # L44610 and Grease Seal # 58846. These parts are all available in Bearing Kit # BK2-100.

For your brakes the correct replacements are Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly - Left Hand # 23-26 and Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly - Right Hand # 23-27. These assemblies will fit on 4-bolt mounting flanges such as # 4-35 which is for a 2-3/8" diameter round axle; this is likely what you have on your 2,800 lb axle but it would be a good idea to go ahead and verify it.

Grease seal set #RG06-050 is what you will need. These are double lip seals, just like what you have (the spring indicates that) and the dimensions are all the same including the 1/2 inch width.

Answer 6

Sounds like you have the trailer hub part #8-247-50UC3-EZ installed on your trailer. That means for a grease seal you would need the part #RG06-050.
