The closest grease cap we have available to the 2-5/16 (2.3125) inch measurement you took on your hub bore is the Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors # BB2328. These are designed to fit hub bores that have an inner diameter of 2.328 inches. This is awfully close to your measurement, but they still might be a bit too large to fit your hubs if your measurement is correct. I just recommend verifying your measurement one more time to make sure you are getting an accurate reading.
