Question:
If I have a 8-201-5 hub, can I replace it with a 8-201-9 hub? It appears both come in the same setup, just the 8-201-9 has a heavier outer bearing.

Hey Tony, yes both of the hubs you mentioned fit the same spindle size so you can replace a # 8-201-5UC3 with a # 8-201-9UC3-EZ. The outer bearings are different but the inner diameters of the bearings is the exact same.

Hey Tony, how did the swap to the 8-201-9 hub go on your axle? It sounds like the matching spindle size should have made it a smooth replacement. Sharing how it turned out could help others looking at the same hub change.
