Question:
I’m am looking for bearing buddy caps for my camper. I measured the inside of the hub and it is 1.966 inch. Which size do I need? The axle says it’s 2800lbs

Hi Branden; with a 1.966" hub bore you want the Bearing Buddy that fits a 1.968" hub bore. These are drive in so that 0.002" difference won't matter for fitment. I recommend getting the stainless steel # BB1968SS so you don't have to worry about corrosion but the chrome plated # BB1968 will also work.
Any big trips planned with your camper this fall?
