Question:
What bearing buddy for bearing L44649?

Expert Reply:
Though I can tell you how to find the Bearing Buddy you need, a bearing such as # L44649 will not factor into it.
Instead, In order to choose the correct Bearing Buddies you will need to measure the hub bores on your trailer's hubs using a digital caliper such as # PTW80157; for example, Bearing Buddies # BB1980A-SS fit a 1.980" hub bore while Bearing Buddies # BB2080SS fit a 2.080" hub bore.
I've added a link to our selection of Bearing Buddies for you to check out as well.
