Hey Bryan, since the race part # L68111 is 2.36 inch the size disc to use of the # PTW83020 that you referenced is the 2.325 inch. That in mm is 59 mm.

Hey Bryan, did the 2.325-inch disc from the installation set work for your 3500-pound Lippert axle? I'm curious to know because it could help others with similar setups.
