How To Find the Correct Replacement Idler Hub That Uses Bearing Buddy For 2.328 Inch Bore

Updated 07/01/2019 | Published 06/28/2019

Question:

The only identifying number I have are on my bearing buddys. They are 2328SS Can you tell me what the hub would be? I THINK it may be a 2.328 inch bore but not sure. It is a 5 bolt thanks

I do have options for you but I cannot confirm fit of a replacement idler hub based solely on the Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors part # BB2328SS. These Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors which have a 2.328" hub bore are common for 4,400 lb, 5,200 lb and 6,000 lb axles but the 5 bolt pattern you said you had is not common for these axle capacities.

Therefore, the only option I have for you to confirm the correct replacement idler hub is to pull the hubs and measure the spindle using the photo below
