Questions & Answers
Measure your hub to determine the correct size.
It should work as long as you make sure it slides on easily. They must have been poorly machined because one of them went on too tightly and broke the hub when I put them on my boat trailer. I would recommend investing a few extra dollars in the Bearing Buddy brand, as they are of much higher quality.
Please take a measurement of your hub bore's diameter. CZC AUTO's wheel bearing buddy has a diameter of 1.25 inches. 98". If the diameters are the same, they will fit.
It's a pity it doesn't apply to 1. Hub bore is 78 inches. The CZC AUTO Bearing Protectors are only compatible with one type of bearing. The bore diameter of the grease cap on the hub is 98 inches.

When I put these on my boat trailer, I discovered that they were poorly made because they were machined slightly too large. I had a difficult time installing them, and one side of the hub fractured, necessitating the purchase of a new hub. I recommend paying a few dollars more for the Bearing Buddy brand, which is of much higher quality.
They've been greased and installed, and they're ready to use. They were extremely tight, so I had to sand down the edges to make them fit, but they are not going anywhere.
The quality of the machining is excellent, and the cost is reasonable.
The ones from Autozone, on the other hand, did.
I thought I was having trouble getting grease to go into the first one, so I tried putting grease in it before installing the second one. I couldn't get grease to come out of the grease fitting unless I pumped my grease gun quickly, which resulted in a large amount of grease being wasted as it came out around the fitting. These are not something I would buy again.
Friendship with wheel bearings. They were a little difficult to put on at first, but once in place, I was able to keep my bearings greased.
It's better to plan ahead, and if you're lucky enough to get one on without grinding, you'll have saved time. Only one out of four was installed correctly. The thin layer of chrome on the remaining three had to be removed with my grinder. Except for the extra time it takes to install, everything else works as it should.
One of the two would fit nicely in the hub, but the other would not. Finally, a mini sledgehammer was used to pound it in. That one held grease like it was supposed to, while the other one squirted grease back out until it was empty again after you pumped it up.
