Can't tell you which one is which

But if you take one off and get the number off the bearing and go to Repco (or Supercheap!!!!!!!) you can get the equivalent and find out which one it is. I believe the difference is the ID or OD of the bearing.

If you have bearing buddies

If you have bearing buddies put the seal in with the lip facing out.  It will stop the water from going into your bearings and let the grease push through from the inside.  I cant remember the numbers of the bearings but just rip them out and get the numbers. Nearly all auto shops will have them on the shelf.
