Question:
Looks like I need the 5 on 4-1/2" hub. Next question. Would the hubs work with the bearing buddy?

Expert Reply:
The Dexter "8-248" is a hub assembly for 3,500 lb axles that uses an L68149 inner bearing and a L44649 outer bearing. This hub assembly was offered in both 5 on 4-1/2" and 5 on 4-3/4" bolt patterns therefore you would need to confirm your bolt pattern in order to choose the correct hub. I have attached a help article to help you find this as well.
I have also attached my recommendations on each hub for you below.

5 on 4-1/2" - part # 84545BX
5 on 4-3/4" - part # 845475UC1
