Hi Michael!

The only difference between the TruRyde Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 7,000-lb Axles - 12" Diameter - 8 on 6-1/2 - Pre-Greased # TRU98AV and TruRyde Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 7,000-lb Axles - 12" Diameter - 8 on 6-1/2 - Pre-Greased # TRU48AV is the lug size.

# TRU98AV
-1/2" Lugs

# TRU48AV
-9/16" Lugs

Other than that, they are exactly the same. Same bearings, seals, and capacities.

What trailer are you wanting these for? And do you know what size lugs you currently have on your drums?
