Expert Reply:
Bearing # L44643 has a 1.980" outer diameter so it is close to what you are saying, but the way to find the correct hub bearings is actually the inner diameters of the bearings (and the grease seal if you need to replace that).
The easiest way to find the correct bearings is by taking apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the grease and you should be able to see the part number stamped directly on them. If you are unable to find them, you need to use a digital caliper and measure your spindle to the thousandths of an inch where the bearings and grease seal ride.
You can use the photo I've attached to see exactly where you need to measure. I've also added a link to a help article on common bearing sizes, as well as a link to our available bearing kits.
