Expert Reply:

The outer bearing in the TruRyde Bearing Kit, part # BK3-300, is part # LM67048. This outer bearing has an internal diameter of 1.25 inches and uses a bearing race # LM67010 with an outer diameter of 2.328 inches.

The bearing kit # BK3-300 is designed for 5,200-lbs axle, 6,000-lbs axle, and 7,000-lbs axle.

I looked up a Timken # 02475 bearing and it also shows an internal diameter of 1.25 inches, but is rated for a larger 8,000-lb axle, so it will be used on a larger hub with a different size bearing race.

I would recommend to look at the Redline Bearing, part # 02475, that is used on 8,000-lb axles and has an internal diameter of 1.25 inches. It uses the Redline Bearing Race, part # 02420, that has an overall diameter of 2.688 inches. You will want to check the size of your axle and the internal dimension of the hub, where the outer bearing race will seat, to determine if this is the correct bearing you will need.

I am including a link that will list our trailer bearing dimensions and the bearing race size that is used for each one.
