Spare bearing question..
Just because I like to be prepared.. How do you determine the bearing size for your axles so as to keep a spare set on board? I suppose I could take the hub off and measure with a caliper but, there...

Best way to be 100% certain is to get the numbers off the bearings. Our axles are allegedly 4400 lbs and I had trouble finding the right bearings. Turns out the bearings are 5200 lbs (or maybe 6000 lbs, can't recall).

Pretty sure those are all those axles are the same size bearings!
That's what I was led to believe but not in my case. Been to long to remember the details tho. I ended up taking the old bearings to an industrial bearing supplier and they ordered the right ones. The local RV bearing supplier that the dealers here use was of no help.
