[QUOTE="GAHunter, post: 467330, member: 24888"] Races are off.. one chewed in pretty good(probably why it was so hard to move), ended up cutting a groove in the race (with rotozip) and laid a chisel side ways and 1 good wack broke it apart and it pulled right off. The new hubs I ordered dont seem to be right.. I'm afraid I measured the spindle wrong.. the hub slides on a couple inches then wont budge at all.. Thinking about punting on fixing this trailer. It's pretty old. May focus on the boat for now and send these hubs back to amazon. Spindle measures 3-1/4" around.. I had initially thought it was 3 1/8, which I found a chart for that said 1" bearings.. I have no idea on 3 1/4. Not going as well as I had hoped. But tomorrow is another day. Going to try and find a caliper tomorrow so I can get a better measurement just to be sure. Tomorrow is paint strip day, weather permitting. [/QUOTE]
