Note for owners of CHINESE trailers! These are the bearings for you and at a good price.

This is quite a long review. Bought a set of XiKe bearings for my Northern Tool Ironton 4x8ft trailer (CHINA trailer in box). Same as port cargo trailer. If you have one of these trailers or your stock is 30205 then you should buy this kit. This is a 25mm spindle bearing kit. Don't buy a traditional 1" spindle bearing kit. The 1 inch kit is slightly larger than that used in the marine trailer. My only complaint is that the production photos show this kit with new metal dust caps that have a removable rubber plug for inspection and testing. use of lubricant. This kit did not have this cap model. That is the reason for the 4 stars. Customers expect images of exactly what they are buying. Give them what they want! The production packaging was beautiful and the bearings and rings came in sealed bags. In my case, with the right tool it was very easy to replace rings, seals and bearings. My old hubs and bearings were not damaged at first. Some people wait for a full hub failure before servicing their hubs. DO NOT WAIT! Always do a pre-ride inspection! You can catch things before they get you stuck somewhere. The new parts fit the same as the original parts. Probably the same production of original parts. If you need to replace a broken side, buy a complete kit to replace the other side. The same principle applies here as when replacing the brakes. They don't just replace the pads on one side. You exchange both sides. THEY ARE TOO CHEAP NOT TOO TOO AND THIS IS CHEAP INSURANCE! The only reason I replaced my old bearings was because the passenger wheel felt nicked when I turned the hub when the trailer was lifted off the ground during a pre-ride inspection. I have driven this trailer about 10,000 miles to this point and regularly check the wheels, tires and bearings for wear or damage and keep fresh grease on the bearings. I disassembled everything and completed the inspection but everything looked great. Not wanting to risk it, I ordered this new kit. I've only got a few hundred miles with new bearings so not sure about durability. I also pull my trailer at very high speeds ;) well over 55 km/h. STAY FAT MY FRIENDS!
