Dexter 4400 LB axle bearing and seals - what to order and how to find part numbers?
Yoda Funny, but none of those part numbers are listed in the service manual....You have to dig through the parts kit catalogue.
Look on page 48 of the manual posted in post 1. Then using the description number like L68419 for Dexter part number 031-033-02 and Google you can find the Timken equivalent. 031-033-02 is on the build sheet in post #14.

I think you just have to be prepared for a two day operation.
Day1/ Jack it up and remove one hub. Remove seal.
Hop in truck with previously removed seal and drive to commercial trailer service garage. Buy new seals that match what you removed earlier much cheaper than at RV dealer.
Day2/ Do the bearing repack.
Day2/ Afternoon. Open beer and admire your fine work.

Not to brag or anything about my finances, but my bank calls me about every day to tell me my balance is OUTSTANDING!
I've got 2 unopened packages of Genuine Dexter inner seals for D44 axles still in the double packs. Bought them for my previous 5er. Never replaced bearings just kept resetting end play till I dumped it.
