Are Dexter Trailer Hubs # 42656 and # 8-201-9UC3-EZ the Same Hubs

Question

Question:

Are the grease cap flanges the same size on the AKHD-655-6-K and 8-201-9UC3-EZ drums? I am trying to replace Dexter EZ Lube drums only. The 201-9UC3-EZ has caps and bolts I do not need. The bearings included in the kit are correct but the rear seal in the kit is 2.125. I need 2.25
