Question:

i have al-ko 10inch x 2 1/4inch drum electric brake axles. the inner bearing is al-ko part # 363192 or hayes part #093705. outer bearing is al-ko # 363180 or hayes #093706. also in the owners maual, the inner bearing cone is #68149 and outer bearing cone is #44649. all these numbers are a little confusing. which number do i use and what bearing buddy fits this axle. it is on a springdale 179rd.

From the research I did it looks like the outer bearing of the Al-Ko bearing number 363180 that you referenced is basically a L-44649, which is what the Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors # BB1980A-SS that you referenced are designed to work on.
