Axles with screw on dust caps are old. My guess is 30's Chev car. I believe
50's and 60's Chev PU wheels fit.

Will I have problems finding bearings for it?
From: cuhulin on 20 Jul 2010 09:26
The bearings probally have a manufacturer/part number on them.Check your
local auto parts stores.

I own an old trailer.It has two axels and four wheels, five spoke
iron/steel wheels.The wheels are inboard, not outboard like most
trailers nowadays.

What are they ball bearings or tapered roller bearings?

Shouldn't matter much. Bearings are pretty much available for anything you
want to name.

But Stryped wants YOU to find the bearings. Otherwise, he wouldn't be
asking you if they were available, he'd be calling a bearing shop.
