Expert Reply:
To know the proper diameter Bearing Buddy caps you need, you will need to use a caliper like # PTW80157 to give us the inner diameter of that hub where the cap will meet within a hundred or thousandth of an inch.
Since you already have the 1.98 inch Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors like # BB1980A, you will need a larger size. They however do not come in 2 inch. We have fits for 2.047 inches and 2.080 inches which is the next size up. There are some hubs that the Bearing Buddies do not fit, so let me know what you have if you need help. I've linked the page to all the options for those bearing protectors.
