I have a Shorelander trailer and the other day I'm looking on line at the parts list and they call out EZ Sleaves on each axel. Can't I just run the seal right on the axel shaft? I thought the EZ Sleave was used if your seal surface was compromised. Why would they use the sleave right out of the factory?
Last year in the spring when I got the rig I went through all 4 hubs, all had EZ Sleaves but they were super worn, some were worn through. So I just discarded the sleave and I'm running the seal right on the axel. Seems to be just fine at the moment.
I've been in a lot of trailer hubs and have never seen them used right out of the factory.
