Ok, I'm confused now. I just got off the phone with etrailer. I wanted to order the Kodiak 13" kit and upgrade to 9/16" studs. I know this takes a larger outer bearing, but I was told they could not tell me the proper bearings to order unless I pulled one of my wheels apart and got a number off the existing bearings and/or took a measurement with calipers. I told her I had Dexter 7000 lb axles and didn't that tell them what size spindles I had. She said no, that you could never tell which spindles they would put on the axle.

I seems odd, since you can go to their page for that hub and it tells you which bearing it takes, but has me second guessing now.

I don't want to buy my bearings from them anyway since they don't carry Timken, but I need to know what size to order.

I'm going to call again tomorrow and talk to a different person, but now thinking different vendor.

Thoughts?
