Question:
The bolt to bolt is 2 & 3/4, the bearing L44610. Thanks

Expert Reply:
If the 2-3/4 measurement is from center of bolt to center of bolt, then your current hub has a bolt pattern of 5 on 4-3/4.
Hub # 845475UC1 does have a bolt pattern of 5 on 4-3/4, but you will want to make sure that your current bearings will match the ones included with the hub. Hub # 845475UC1 uses inner bearing # L68149 and outer bearing # L44649.
These industry standard numbers should be lasered onto the back side of your bearings, or if the numbers are not visible, you can always measure your current bearings with a set of calipers. Bearing # L68149 has an inner diameter of 1.378 inches, while bearing # L44649 has an inner diameter of 1.063 inches.
If you could provide your current bearing numbers, and confirm the wheel bolt pattern of your current hub I would be glad to suggest the correct hub for your application.
I have included a link to a video demonstrating how to remove and repack bearings, and an article to help in determining bolt pattern.
