Here is a list of the Bearing Buddy bearing protectors which fit a 1.98" hub bore. This is the common size and most likely the size you need. Your hub may be reading slightly smaller due to some surface corrosion or a temperature difference.

Stainless Steel w/ Auto Check # BB1980A-SS
Chrome w/ Auto Check # BB1980A
Stainless Steel # BB84SR
Chrome # BB24SR

Personally I feel the Stainless Steel w/ Auto Check # BB1980A-SS is the best route to go as it will last longer and allows you to monitor the grease levels via the blue auto check ring.
