Expert Reply:
The Malone MicroSport Trailer # MPG460G does have the 1.98 inch inner diameter hub. I confirmed this with the manufacturer. To add bearing buddies, you simply need the # BB1980A for chrome or # BB1980A-SS for stainless steel. You will not need to replace the bearings to install these caps. You can simply use the LubriMatic Economy Size Mini Grease Gun # L30100 and add the marine trailer wheel bearing grease # L54FR that matches what the axle comes with. When installing these, you will need to add grease to your hubs to allow the Bearing Buddy to utilize its spring to keep the bearings properly lubricated.
If you want to replace and repack the bearings, you will want kit # BK1-100.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
