Because all Torflex axles used by Escape are the #10 (including both 19' and 21'), all bearing and seal parts are the same. There have been two seals used with the #10, one for the standard system and a better one for E-Z Lube (due to the risk of blowing grease past the seal into the brakes), but I
think they are interchangeable so one can just use the better one.
The difference between the 2500 pound capacity rating of the 19' and the 3000 pound capacity rating of the 21' (and the 3500 pound rating of the 17') is only in the length of the rubber rods inside which act as springs and bushings. That doesn't change the bearings, seals, hubs, or brakes. There are other things which can be changed in a Torflex #10, but all the grease-type bearings are same.
