Hi Robert; you can install bearing buddies but you will need some more information. More specifically, you need your hub bore diameter. One of the most common sizes is 1.98" which would use the # BB1980A-SS. If you have a 1.781" hub bore then the # BB1781 you were looking at would fit. This is a precise measurement so it is best to use a digital caliper # PTW80157.
I went ahead and attached a link below to all of our Bearing Buddy bearing protectors below for your reference which can be filtered by hub bore diameter.
