Size of wheel bearing seals - Bigfoot

[MountainHome]

Hi,
I have a 91 17' Bigfoot trailer with a single axle - does anyone out there know what size wheel bearing seals it needs? Everyone tells me to take a measurement from the old seal but I have a friend coming in to help me and I would like to get the part before the store closes. Yes, I know it has to be the exact right size and if I have to go back to get other seals thats fine - just don't want to waste my friends time if possible.
Thank you!

You might try looking for a tag on the axle for a make and model, then go to there web site.

Just a thought.

Clean the seal with solvent and take a close look, most of them have a number stamped in the face in _{tiny print......}

The inboard bearing should dictate the seal size since axle spindles and brake drums are pretty much standardized.

Hi Carol the seals in my 1989 19' Bigfoot are SE-22EZ, I got them from Princess auto. My axle is a Standens 3500 Lb 10x2 1/4" (Duel axle on mine).

I just posted this word of caution in another thread. The inner races on my 1989 19' Bigfoot are L68110. I have in the past confirmed this with Standens (The axle supplier). I don't know what years this was the case.

Hi everyone,
All your information helped me, it turns out that the part store could only give me a part if I knew the part number. So after getting home and watching many youtube videos on regreasing bearings, we took the wheel off and popped the cap off - and behold it looked like the bearings had just been done - so when my friend came down he checked it over and said it was fine. We bought the trailer two years ago and have only used it about six times but I didn't know what the previous owner had done, I figure better be safe than sorry. We plan to go on a long trip with it and so I feel better that I know. It would have been out a few dollars if I had taken it to a garage.
Thanks so much!
