The Dexter hubs were used in later years and had bigger spindles I believe.
A replacement hub off an older trailer should not be to difficult to find. Many trailers used 12 inch brakes so one of an SOB may likely work also.

Hey JGS. I think I have to replace my older wheel hubs on my 1974 sovereign. I believe your original hubs were the same as mine with the threads on the hubs and then the wheel bolts screwed into those to secure the wheel. Did you replace with the 12” dexter hub? Any issues?
