Dexter axle parts

[Joint Venture II]

On my 05 2955RL I have I believe 6k axles. On the outside of the bearing cap are rubber "plugs" or covers. I have one that needs replacing as its cracked and will permit water to enter bearing. Does anyone know part number or where I can get a replacement?

I can't help with the EZ-Lube cap but someone will know. I just wanted to let you know a 2005 2955RL has 5,200 lb. rated axles.

Thank you for the quick response. Found them on Amazon, $9 for package of 5.

Those rubber plugs are also available at most any auto parts store..

Hope you aren’t using the EZ Lube zerks for wheel bearing lubrication

[Joint Venture II]

Appreciate the input and no I do not use the zerks to maintain the grease of the axle bearings. Great way to push grease past the bearing seal and ruin the brakes.
