[QUOTE="Sawdust Farmer, post: 250195, member: 6754"] Yes, those look like bearing buddies - you can get replacements at Walmart or any marine store, auto parts store, etc. They come in different sizes, so you may want to take one of the old ones with you. The only dimension to worry about is where it slides into the hub. I would strongly suggest you disassemble and inspect the bearings, seals, etc. Plan on replacing seals, bearings and bearing buddies - really not that expensive. If you don't know how, maybe you have a buddy that can help/show you. Google and YouTube can help, but it is better to learn from someone in person. Pretty simple thing to do and can save lots of trouble and $$$$ down the road. sf [/QUOTE]
