Luckily, FLOE International is still around. I was able to find that your 10 foot tilt single axle snowmobile trailer used an L44649 inner and outer wheel bearing.

Your snowmobile trailer was equipped from the factory with idler hubs that had a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. Due to its being exposed to harsh winter conditions and possibly road salt, going with a galvanized hub would be recommended versus a painted hub like the # 34822545BX you'd looked at.

I'd go with part # AKIHUB-545-2-G-EZ-2K, for EZ-Lube spindles or # AKIHUB-545-2-G-2K for standard spindles. Either hub includes the inner and outer L44649 wheel bearings, the pre-installed races, the grease seal, the dust cap and the lug nuts. The hubs are sold individually, so for one axle you'll need to order a pair.

@Joe You'll want to torque a 1/2 inch lug nut to 75-85 foot lbs. Hope that helps!!
