I believe there are two types of discs available. One has one piece rotor and hub and the other (I believe smaller) has separate rotor and hub. The instructions from Kodiak referred to both. I believe the larger 13" discs only come in one piece setups. You do have the further choice of regular greasable bearings with the races already pressed in or, as in my case, the XLlubes, which correspond to Dexter's Neverlubes. I'm not sure of this but I believe the spindle you already have on your axle restricts your choice. Though it is possible to change spindles. If you had Neverlubes before, then you need XLlubes to replace them. If you had regular or EZlubes before then you go back with standard bearings. I believe this to be the case, but it's possible they are interchangeable. The performance difference in the discs over the electrics is tremendous. Having them now underscores to me how really unsafe I was before. In heavier trailers, discs really seem to be the way to go. It's the best money I've spent on my trailer.
