RE: Mystery Trailer
Hey guys, I just picked up a 1957 Mastercraft Trailer Inc. trailer (Model BA8-750) with a 55-57 Larson Crestliner 15′ Buccaneer. I reconditioned the axle to bring it home and wanted to share the part numbers for the 1.5″ axle with straight 1″ spindles:
Original Bearings – Bower 07100 (I reused these as they were in great shape) The Timken 07100 appear to fit, but I did not try to press in the bearing race.
Original Seal – Unknown – Used 1 CR Seals PN 14832 single lip and 1 Carry-On PN 495T double lip (The Carry-On was off the shelf at Tractor Supply and came 2 to a kit. I wanted to test the single lip CR Seal which my local NAPA had in stock. Both seals measure 1.5″ ID and 1.987″ OD and both seals went in fairly easy with a vice and a similar diameter socket.
The hubs are aluminum (Casting #58000) with 4 studs and fit new off the shelf trailer wheels.
