The plastic blue caps both broke
The plastic blue caps both broke. It is a 15 ft pound torque. I had both hand tight. I am a aircraft mechanic and electrical engineer with 40 years of experience. You cannot buy the blue caps from etrailer or Dexter. The rear seals both spun in the hub. They should be press fit into the hub and rotate around the spindle. I originally had Tiedown Engineering and loved them. The caps screwed into the hub. They no longer make them. So we are stuck with Dexter. Dexter's priority is how much the CEO makes. I am disappointed that etrailer does not demand that Dexter make replacement caps for their product.
