The cones on the axle are replaceable, and can be ordered from Amazon or purchased at any bike shop.
Rear hub balls are almost always ¼" diameter, but you should measure to make sure. They can be purchased from an industrial supply, Amazon or any bike shop. Grade 25 is the worst you should use; Grade 10 are better. The lower the number the more consistent the ball sizes are.
Use a water resistant grease, such as boat trailer wheel bearing grease.
Thank you for the quick reply. The info is certainly very helpful!
