I am looking to buy for my PWC trailer a set of Buddy Bearing but I am not sure of what size to buy? Can you tell me which one to purchase? Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
In order to pick out the correct bearing buddy you will need know the hub bore diameter of your hub. To do this, remove the wheel and tire and remove the grease cap from the center of the hub. Usually it is a metal cap that is just lightly hammered into place. Use a screwdriver to pry off the cap.
Clean the grease off and measure the opening. I have included a video demonstrating the Bearing Buddy.
The Bearing Buddies # BB1980A-SS are for hubs with a 1.98 inch hub bore.
