Question:
My hub id measures 1.974. Its a Lowes 4x6 flat trailer. I tried a 1.980, but it is too large. Is there a bearing buddy for me?

Expert Reply:
The closest bearing buddy we have would be the 1.980 part # BB1980A that it sounds like already tried.
The next smallest size we have is the 1.968 part # BB1968 which unless you measured wrong would be too small.
I am surprised you couldn't get the # BB1980A to fit. That should be close enough to make it work, it could be that you need to use a hammer and a board to lightly tap it into place.
