- What does the 1 1/16 inch measurement refer to?
- It is the inner diameter of the bearing bore, where the spindle sits. Check your spindle and hub before ordering.
- Which hubs use the L44649?
- It is most common in 5-lug hubs rated at 2,000 lb and as the front bearing on 3,500 lb 5-lug hubs.
- Does it come with a race and seal?
- The listing describes the bearing itself. Confirm whether a cup, race or seal is included before you fit it.
- Can I replace just the bearing and keep the old race?
- Best practice is to fit a new matching race with a new bearing. A worn race shortens the life of the new bearing.
- How do I set the preload after fitting?
- Tighten the spindle nut while spinning the wheel, then back off to the hub maker's spec so there is slight end play. Over-tightening overheats the bearing.
- Is this a good spare to carry?
- Yes. It is small and light, and a failed bearing can strand a trailer. Carry the matching race and seal too.
