boat trailer parts needed in Mulege
will try here to see if there might be help..
I need a boat trailer hub kit 5 on 4.5 1 3/8 x 1 1/16 tapered spindle... complete with brgs and seal...
anyone have one laying around... close to Mulege.....
OR anyone coming south this week that could mule one down for me...
don't find this stuff readily avail in these parts... Me thinks Feremar in Loreto has them but upon calling them I don't think they understood what
we were talking about...
Any help greatly appreciated....
Started to replace bearings yesterday and found the hub is cracked....

Wish I could deliver the right parts for you...I can get them to a bajanomad coming down maybe...A boat trailer axle seal is double edged seal and
very unlike a normal axle seal !! I see this problem WAY too much..but to get you on the road if you have more info and sizes..I might be able to
assit...(831) that's my biz line and im in santa cruz ca...K&T...PSCheck your U2U for my biz number if needed !!

I'll be back down to Mulege in a week to 10 days.
Is this a big part? I'm carrying a load in my pickup but if I can fit it in I'll be happy to bring it to you.
Perhaps captkw can get it to me here in California.
U2u me if I can help out here.

Plenty of places to get these parts here in San Diego. If someone is heading south, I can pick this stuff up and meet up with you.

buy on ebay...ship any address
for a saltwater boat... buy galvanized
be careful there are different axel weights
$41 delivered each
I would buy two...one for each side

boat axle seals
Hola,,I see a lot of WRONG seals on boat trailers...a boat trailer seal is double lipped and needs to ride on a good,,clean surface..and pack the
cavity between the two lips with a good grease..."bearing buddys" help some .. But the bearings and seals should be checked at least once a
year....BTW,, for damaged axle seal area there is a product called seal/sleeve saver and work good if installed right...safe travels....K&T PS..almost all tire shops have no clue about boat tires and seals !!!! take it to
a boat place !!!!
