just got my new rim. seems getting studs replaced in my area is more difficult than I had hoped. I am maybe looking to replace the hub instead of just the wheel studs. The problem is I am not sure what size hub ( or studs I have). I have an older Tuffy trail trailer model v1830. 5 studs on the hub. Any advice is appreciated. | |||

Posts: 3480 Location: Elk River, Minnesota | Hiya!! If you are adept at pulling the hub, you could most likely determine your need based on the size of the bearings. My Gut instinct says your hubs will be 1750 lb, having a larger inner hub than outer hub. Most trailers are 5 x 4.5 for the bolt circle so that should not be an issue, nor should the threads on the hub. It may be beneficial to get a new set of lug nuts if you are unsure, but if you take one of yours with when you go to purchase a hub, you can check to ensure it works. Now...if your trailer has drum or disk brakes, you'd follow the same steps, just needing to get the correct size, which most likely would be a 10" Please note, I'm shooting off the hip a bit here as I am not familiar with the current trailer you have. If you are in the twin cities area by chance, I'd come give you a hand... Steve | ||

Posts: 1275 Location: Stevens Point, Wi. | Not sure if this will help. I own a 2001 Osprey 1700. A few years back I needed a wheel cylinder for my surge brakes. Trailer is a Vanguard/Trailmaster made by J.Q. Tex, Inc. Phone #2192590329. After calling them, they suggested calling axle manufacturer. Axis Products, Inc. phone # 5742946651 or 5742668282. I spoke with a lady by the name of Staci, who was very helpful. Got my wheel cylinder and grease seals within a few days at a very reasonable price. Extremely good customer service! | ||
