There isn't really any info available on the FV5300 so you'll need to check the hinge bolt hole spacing to see if it matches the # FVK1020-19 you were looking at and that the lift arm sits on the right side of the vent. If your lift arm sits in the middle then part # A10-3376 would be a better replacement option. This comes with bolt hinge that you can mount to the sides of the vent for a universal fit and has the lift arm mounting bracket in the middle.

Many times the thickness of the grease seals #RG06-070 is not a factor. If this is a trailer hub there should be enough room for the seal to fit flush with seal flange.
