Question:
Hi I have a 2008 Four Winns trailer. I need to replace the bearing caps and wanted to use the bearing buddy product. The caps are threaded but Im not sure of the size. The two variants Ive seen are BB2080T-SS or 1980TSS really close in size. Any tips on how I can confirm which one I need?

It is actually really easy to determine which Bearing Buddies are the correct fit for your trailer; all you need to do is measure the hub bores on your trailer's hubs using digital caliper and match the hub bore diameter to the correct Bearing Buddies.
For example, the Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors # BB2080T-SS you referenced will fit a hub bore diameter of 2.080 inches while the Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors # BB1980T-SS fit a hub bore with a diameter of 1.980 inches.
I've added a link to our selection of Bearing Buddies for you to check out when you find the measurement, or you can let me know what measurement you get, and I'd be happy to find the right one for you.
